When i was young I dreamed some dreams
I lived in fantasy
I believed that somewhere was a shining Knight for me
And he'd be bold and fearless and as handsome as can be
He's kill all the dragons, and he'd love me endlessly.
Then I great up, I realised reality is life
I met a certain Mr Jones and I became his wife
I became a mother, too, with all the joys and woes
Lots of laughter, sometimes tears, all families have those.
Now im pushing 50, that's half a century
That might worry some folk but it doesn't bother me.
You may think I stopped dreaming, that isn't really true
Ive got a little secret that I'd like to share with you
I never got my shining knight. I decided I would rather
Go to the top of the tale - i got myself king Arthur.
And he is bold and fearless and as handsome as can be
He kills all the dragons, and he loves me endlessly.
Yes he my king and im his queen, that's just as it should be
Together we have made my fream come reality.
Poem written by Frances Jones.
In loving memory 1935-2026 💛
