I Will Want To Grow Old With You

Published by Family Friend Poems February 2021 with permission of the Author.

You can take me on a holiday
but I prefer to sit at home
you can buy me chocolate and roses
but I just want your hand to hold
you can dine me all night long
but I would rather lie under the stars
while we listen to our favourite song
you can give me jewels and gold
but if you find me a feather
with you
I will want to grow old
