I was going to cut some flowers, <br />But you never showed. <br /> <br />I was thinking of shorter hair, <br />But now, I think I'll let it grow. <br /> <br />I was thinking about the days, <br />We had so very long ago. <br /> <br />I was thinking of the love we had, <br />I was just thinking, don't ya know? <br /> <br />I was praying for a better world, <br />Of a peace beyond compare. <br /> <br />I was praying for the words' of God, <br />So that all mankind could share. <br /> <br />I was going to cut some flowers', <br />But you never came. <br /> <br />I think I'll cut them anyway, <br />I'll cut them just the same!<br /><br />Linda Winchell<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-was-10/
