 THE TRAVELING LIFELONG BUSH POET

Persistence


I knew a bloke in life I did
A quite bloke in his way~
Just did things the best he could
To find happiness and love to stay~
But because he was a nice bloke
A target he seemed to become~
They say nice guys don't get the girls but
He just rolled with what life does and had done~
A bloke that gave all he had to give
Be it all he had on any day~
But always someone wanted and expected more
Never happy with what they had no way~
He end up coming to the conclusion
That maybe this was not his lot~
Left all he had worked for and went away
And yes he was soon forgot~
He met after the longest while
By accident another one~
A year or two they went through
Same old song,same setting sun~
Not willing to always keep leaving all
To selected memories~
To always trying to please every one
When non of them one can ever please~
The longest time it seemed to pass
Yep ... another came along for company~
Who really only wanted to improve the bank
And play mind games at family~
No more .. No more he said to himself
The longest time goes by~
Does true love exist at all he thought
For real true love this bloke would die~
It seems forever and a day
He spent all on his very own~
Got himself a dog and some chooks
Made himself a little home~
Got talking to another after awhile
Seemed they both had walked that country mile~
Experienced the very same things
But still had the stamina to smile~
They talked and they talked and talked
No one had ever cared to do so before~
Getting to know each other so
They opened up ever so many of a door~
Everything they seem to agree upon
They were like soul twins in every single way~
This went on for almost a year
All he had searched for , forever and a day~
Got to be that they both got to be
All to each other more and more~
He had searched for this very entity
And she was what he had dreamed of for sure~
She and he both feeling just the same
About all in all honesty~
Closer and closer they became
Walking towards the same destiny~
Persistence it had paid of
For this bloke and his love of his life~
Both of them now welded together
And soon she will be his wife~
If you have a picture of perfection
And it does mean only within~
And if you are determined to one day find it
That very prize you well could win~
But true love is when two very souls
Feel exactly in every way the same~
Want the same very things in life
Having already known the feeling of true pain~
Then you have what is known as real true love
And yes it lasts forever and then some~
This bloke and his angel not only found it
But they protect so what they've found and won~
