Glass Mountain Writers - Sheila Wingfield

Sheila Wingfield is a new member of The Glass Mountain Writers' Group.

Looking back

When I was eighteen dear John

And you were twenty-one,

There was much we had not seen

And much we had not done.

We set out to explore the world

And in those eager days

Lead by our aspirations

We planned our separate ways.

We gazed upon the road ahead

With over zealous eyes,

Thus embraced each other

Then bid our fond goodbyes,

The urge for independence

And the lure of pastures new

Prompted the ambitions

We sought to pursue.

Has it all been worth it John

Would we still choose to part

Or would we take another route

closest to the heart?
