I dreamt that she and I had met <br />when we were young and fancy free. <br />It is a dream I shan’t forget <br /> but will remember happily. <br /> <br />We fell in love and we were wed <br />together raised a family. <br /> I see the pictures in my head. <br />My dream was Oh so right to me. <br /> <br />It was a dream that could not be. <br />We did not meet we did not wed <br /> but yet I hold the memory. <br />Perhaps allowed to look ahead <br /> <br /> See what in time would come to be. <br />She married but she was betrayed <br />I wed and raised a brood of three. <br />A sad mistake which fate had made. <br /> <br />When we were old and fancy free. <br />We met as we were meant to do <br />The fates had reversed their decree. <br />Brought us together and we knew. <br /> <br />That you were meant to be with me <br />and I was meant to be with you. <br />Too late to have a family <br />I am content just finding you. <br /> <br />Perhaps it’s possible to see <br />some things which haven’t happened yet <br />That in due course will come to be. <br /> A vivid dream you can’t forget. <br /> <br />Some sort of future memory. <br />I only know my dream came true <br /> when you agreed to marry me <br />I had to wait so long for you. <br />24-Jun-07<br /><br />ivor or ivor.e hogg<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/future-in-the-past-for-my-wife/
