I'm Just An Old Fashioned Girl <br />by Barbara Lynn Terry <br /> <br />I'm just an old fashioned girl <br />who cooks from fresh produce <br />and the reddest meats. <br /> <br />I'm just an old fashioned girl <br />that is in bed by ten and up <br />with crowing rooster. <br /> <br />I'm just an old fashioned girl <br />who holds hands only when she <br />is at the movies with a boy. <br /> <br />I'm just an old fashioned girl <br />who sews and mends her <br />own worn out and torn clothes. <br /> <br />I'm just an old fashioned girl <br />who believes in a courtship <br />before one kiss is shared. <br /> <br />I'm just an old fashioned girl <br />that loves to dreamily walk <br />along the river in a daze of love. <br /> <br />I'm just an old fashioned girl <br />that loves the wind in her hair <br />and the birds and the trees. <br /> <br />I'm just an old fashioned girl <br />who believes that work makes <br />makes a body strong. <br /> <br />I'm just an old fashioned girl <br />who believes that faith in God <br />makes for a strong soul. <br /> <br />I'm just an old fashioned girl <br />who sits and watches the sunset <br />and the pretty hues it makes. <br /> <br />I'm just an old fashioned girl <br />who marvels at the sight of <br />a beautiful butterfly. <br /> <br />I'm just an old fashioned girl <br />who dreams of a husband, <br />family and little white cottage. <br /> <br />I'm just an old fashioned girl <br />who dreams of whimsical things <br />that will never be. <br /> <br />I'm just an old fashioned girl <br />who can see the light of <br />the modern world around her. <br /> <br />I'm just an old fashioned girl <br />wishing that times were simpler <br />again like they used to be. <br /> <br />© 2009 by Barbara Lynn Terry<br /><br />Barbara Lynn Terry<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-m-just-an-old-fashioned-girl/
