Barry A. Lanier - bA Feeling I Can't Forget

In the summer of life,
By chance we first met.
The day I can't remember,
The feeling I can't forget.

My heart soon melted,
Then appeared in my throat.
A young lad, deeply in love,
At the time, didn't even know.

Music and laughter,
Visions and dreams.
Rocking on the frontporch,
Facing landscapes of bright green.

How much I loved her!
Never really telling her how deep.
Together we'd laugh, together we'd weep,
Abide in a love, and friendship so deep.

On a warm, summer's day,
My true love was sent.
A winter's chill filled my spirit,
As homeward, she went.
