    No Family of My Own

    If I'd had a family
    I'd love life every day
    I'd take my children to the park
    And watch them as they play
    I'd push them on the swingset
    And watch them on the slide
    Then we'de play some hide and seek
    And I would run and hide

    But I don't have a family
    I'm such a lonely man
    Living my life day to day
    Doing anything I can?
    I have made some big mistakes
    But the biggest of them all
    Was any of my early love
    I didn't walk down the wedding hall

    I could have had a loving wife
    To pamper all the time
    With two or three little children
    I'd be proud to say their mine
    I would thank my loving wife
    Treat her special every day
    And when I'd hold her every night
    I would thank God as I pray

    Oh Songman-you can be in my family-have peace...Earthly

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
