The days of wine and roses

Once through that closing door, I could never return to my carefree
days of wine and roses. Alcohol took control of my existence. That
door remains shut of course but thanks to the 12 steps of AA, I have
regained a measure of happiness one day at a time. Thank you God.
Peace and love,
Bill C.


The days of wine and roses,
Laugh and run away,
Like a child at play,
Through a meadowland,
Toward a closing door,
A door marked never more,
That wasn't there before.
The lonely night discloses,
Just a passing breeze,
Filled with memories,
Of the golden smile,
That introduced me to,
The days of wine and roses,
And you!
The lonely night discloses,
Just a passing breeze,
Filled with memories,
Of the golden smile,
That introduced me to,
The days of wine and roses,
And you!
