2 June 2017

Bonfire wild and bright;
sunrise glow rich with surprises;
golden warm and light;
forest-tinged laughter and birdsong;
infinite as the spread of summer skies;
deep as indigo kisses;
true and perfect as little violets;
we are even more than the rainbow of our love
awash with the glorious triumph
of the healing rain of our first twist in the road
and round the corner, the sun sings songs
upon songs upon songs
as our hearts dance deliriously to their tunes
walking hand in hand
and heads held happiness-high
into a never-ending, all-weather
future.

I too really liked the "all weather" line.  I took it as a sign of wisdom, knowing it won't always be sunshine ahead, but in knowing so, your bond is strengthened and readied for anything that lies ahead.  Good to see you again, OwlSA.

So good to read you again! And what a pearl in this poetic oyster! Your "all weather future" line is genius. ~L
