Picture Fran's porch - her favorite place to be - she took the picture in 2002

"Top of the World" by Lynn Anderson

I Wish By: Frances M. McCrory @ 1961

I wish I could feel your lips on mine

Then I would have my own little shrine.

My heart would pound and beat like mad;

As we stand on the front porch of my pad.

I wish you would put your arms around me,

And then I know you would see

That I would melt like butter.

I know we could never utter

The things that tell our love for each other.

It’s not a love for a sister or brother.
