    It Could Have Been Us
    Just think if we could have met years ago The things we'd have that we
    could say and show

    The children created would be yours and mine Instead of 'his' and 'hers'
    we share at this time

    Our children we visit by setting a time and place While the other mom and
    dad throw that in our face

    Our house would have been a home we made together But now we share a
    place created by stormy weather

    Happy and in love which could have been before But nobody knows what
    life has in store

    Take time to look around, be content where you are It could have been
    you and me, arguing from afar

    It wasn't our time to be together back when For those things we created
    between now and then

    Would never have existed for us to love and share Things happen for a
    reason, takes time to prepare

    The love we found was our time to be It brought the life we now
    share, between you and me

    "Things happen for a reason, takes time to prepare" Oh how very right you are,the lives we lead tend to reek with 20 20 hindsight. Sad but we all must face and learn these truths.

    This poem is beautifully written!!! Sometimes we may think that we have found true love, only to later realize that it really wasn't true love after all. But if by chance Mr. or Ms. Right comes along, then we are truly blessed; therefore we need to hold on tight, with all our might and never let go. Thanks for sharing such a well written poem, and may you and yours be forever blessed, Clementine !!!

    The fate and time has its place for love, love hurts even more when faced with a old loved one that you had kids by. The poem was great slow visible to the pain and great ending on what was to come.

    In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.
