Remember The Times

Remember The Times

by Bud Lemire on Sept 1, 2004

I remember the times, when there was no aching

And it wouldn't be me, that you'd be waking

Life was so easy, we each gave so much

Those were the days, when we loved to touch

We raised a beautiful family, you and I

Seems like those times, quickly passed by

All of my free time, is taken on you

Doing the best, it's the best I can do

You're not at fault, for it's the human destiny

The body is frail, in all life that you see

I've given you, the best years of my life

And tried my best, to be a good wife

I'd give anything, to take some of your pain

At the cost of it, driving us each insane

As my body ages, it's harder for me

To be a wife and caregiver, and do it properly

It sure would be nice, to turn back the clock

And go hand in hand, with you for a walk

I remember the walk of life, we took together

Two people so giving, living without this pressure

This is the other part of the other poem YEARS THAT PASSED.

This is from the Wife & Caregiver's point of view.
