I ASKED THE QUESTION
Folder:
COUNTRY POEMS
All the thoughts were going
around in my head.
I had not been able to sleep in my bed for
a long while.
I asked the question.
A phone number, I could not dial.
A mile I could not walk.
I could not talk.
A boat after a long trip, that could not dock.
I asked the question.
The day was done.
The evening was fun.
I could hear her breathing.
The sun had gone down.
I asked the question.
Tonight, at the park.
The park right next to a track with trolleys going by.
Look at that night sky.
"My oh my!"
The moon big and bright.
An amazing sight.
I asked the question.
You see, I was down on a knee.
There see, a part of me, that wanted to run away and flee.
A part that wanted the morning sun to come.
Then, again things would be fun.
I asked the question.
A tear, my face hit.
he park, the moon lit.
My ear heard the answer.
That park night, we were the only dancers.
I asked the questions.
The question on our both lips.
A soft kiss and a carress.
A kiss long and filled with fire.
A feeling getting higher and higher.
I asked the question.
A story told and life that could now unfold.
She said we would be wed.
All the thoughts going on in my head.
Today, I am not going to sleep in my bed.
My life, a new way.
My life, a new game to play.
Oh, I asked the question.
Yeah, I asked the question.
