Could Be Anywhere...

We Are One

Sitting out back together
competing with the trains
for a little talk time.
Reading the love poems
written for another
knowing, we are one.

She smiles and cries
as she hears the words
tenderly, lovingly reminded.
She is not threatened
nor does she threaten
she knows, we are one.

Our separate friendships
even relationships
inspire us to be better.
Creation, lovingly nurtured
love carefully grown
always, we are one.

We as one, perhaps
attracted to another
maybe even, we love.
Yet, essence tis mingled
complete me's recreated
forever, we are one.

We snuggle out back
discussing these and those
as we do everything.
Life goes on, the world turns
our union is our bedrock
together, we are one..

"Tis ink coming
from his arm,
Captain!"

Oh Dan, I especially like this poem.  I wish I had written it....speaks to me and says so much of how I feel toward my sweetheart, of thirty four years.  Lovely,  Marcy

Dan,
I love this.  I agree completely with Alle'cram.  - the whole 34 years thing.     1 1/2 year.  Thanks!

This is so sweet and romantic...It made me think of my last honey..We were together for almost four years before going our seperate ways..  

With a little piece of tomorrow,
You'll have to kiss yesterday goodbye.
Because today won't last forever,
And the past will only make you cry.

This is both quiet and simple, and that's what makes it powerful.  Lovely work.
