This is all I want.. <br /> <br />ALL I WANTED <br />By Barbara Lynn Terry <br /> <br />All I ever wanted in life, is love <br />and to be beautiful as a white dove <br />to cherish memories so fine <br />to be able to call someone mine <br />to hold a picture and reminisce <br />of laughter and play just like this <br /> <br />All I ever wanted was a mother <br />to ask advice and talk about...boys <br />to help her make the dinner <br />in my mind would be a winner <br />to go shopping with and buy new clothes <br />and laugh at the sizes way too small <br />we would try to wear for only a moment or two <br />to ask her if her dress I could borrow <br />to wear on my date tomorrow <br /> <br />All I ever wanted in this life of mine <br />was to have happiness and time <br />to romp and skip and laugh and play <br />to dance in his arms, oh so strong <br />and giggle and smile oh so sweet <br />while dancing the night to the beat <br />in my stockinged feet <br /> <br />all I ever wanted...<br /><br />Barbara Lynn Terry<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/all-i-ever-wanted/
