OF YOU


As the sun sets
A sudden hesitation and the moment will pass
A kiss, a tender word
Anticipation of a life of love

Walking by the creek
Water trickling slowly by
A knowing smile
Tears disappearing into the night

Thoughts and memories of pain
Vanishing with a caring touch
Soft eyes looking toward the future
Two connecting as one

The dance continues from one to another
Hand in hand they see the world
Every adventure and sorrow
Never apart again
