A MOMENT PASSING APART


      Has it been so long
      Since I have seen the glimmering
      Of your eyes as we hold each other close
      A flower bloomed this morning in the dawn

      Again the mountains glowed with the sun
      Visions we shared, I now see alone
      To touch your hand and squeeze it tight
      Embracing your waist as we walk

      Only days have passed
      An eternity passing in a moments time
      Soon you will return
      Then we will begin again

      Like each day a new sunrise
      My love for you grows
      Apart or together it matters not
      Words and thoughts merged as one

      Our love is a gift
      To and from one another
      It brings peace to our hearts
      A foundation solid and mature
