Captivated by the fragrance and beauty of the honeysuckle vines. |
Honeysuckle Dreams I can see the honeysuckles hanging on the fence. Omitting a sweet aroma that pleased my senses As a boy I would walk down the old country road. Loving the fragrance and beauty they would hold. The honeysuckles grew on the fence each year. I would visit them often I could talk and be near. I have been reserved and a loner all of my life. They were a friend when I needed some time. When I felt lonely I would escape into my world. would go there alone to dream of some pretty girl. This was the only time in my life I felt satisfied. In my world I could make believe all was just fine. Nearing my manhood things changed it seems. I no longer had time for my honeysuckle dreams. I had to start living in reality like all of my friends. Try to gain ambition and confidence from within. The seclusion they offered hiding inside and alone. I could have privacy and make them my new home. For awhile I would cuddle up and talk to God a lot. Told Him of my troubles and the thoughts I had got. After my long struggle to prove I was a real man. Today I feel confident about the man I now am. When I think of those honeysuckles on the fence. How sweet my memories have been ever since. Talked to myself and lived in a honeysuckle world. Jesus was there and heard me speak of the girls. I'll never forget my memories of the honeysuckles. My fairytale world brought me dreams and chuckles. By: Kings |
