A Heart So Broken
Once knew a girl whose heart,
was like heaven, on a dew drop day,
as they are so refreshing, so was
her beautiful soft smile.
On a cool summer night in 1962,
we would stroll slowly by,
the lake, as the moon's rays
kissed the shadows on the lake.
So peaceful and quite was
this small Iowa town,
that the memory of it
brings my soul to quiver.
The distance between us
brought an end to our heartwarming
romance that we shared that
summer so long ago.
Thinking of her on this
somber Sunday afternoon,
wondering if she ever married,
and has lived a happy life.
Life does not always give us
what we want, sometimes life
gives us what we need,
so it is, so it was.
