Als we ouder zijn

WHEN WE’RE OLDER
When we’re older,
let’s meet every Sunday at four,
in that cute little cafe we love.
Let’s laugh at our foibles,
our mishaps and then,
release our mistakes to above.
We can share our new wrinkles,
each hair that’s turned grey,
and marvel at how we have grown.
We can both reminisce
on the lives that we’ve led,
and be grateful for each day we’ve known.
When we’re older,
let’s meet by the tree in the park,
the one where the blossom grows yearly.
We can share some nice food
and toast with a drink,
remembering those we loved dearly.
We will not give a thought
to the youth we have lost,
for we see so much worth in the change,
we won’t feel the rush of a fast-ticking clock,
for we know time is ours to arrange.
When we’re older,
let’s meet every Sunday at four,
in that cute little cafe we love.
Let’s be wowed by how
we have weathered this life,
no regrets, we were just here to love.
