You and Me

American Gothic, 1930 by Grant Wood at Chicago Institute of Art 

You and Me

We’ve lived our lives and made our choices,

No regrets, all is well, We listen to childrens’ voices.

Be in the moment. Don’t forget to breathe.

If we were together, would we ever leave?

 

I wouldn’t change a thing. Neither would you.

As time goes by, we do what we do.

We’re far away but really in the same space.

A quiet, peaceful, mostly joyful time and place.

 

Alone as a spec of dust or a grain of sand.

Isn’t it wonderful, just so grand?

“Get off my lawn!" said the angry old man.

We do what we do and we do what we can.


(Just know I’m your number one fan,)

AABB, AABB, AABB, AABB according to plan.

“Everybody’s an artist” says the art teacher.

Van Gogh started as art and book seller, and a preacher.
