October’s Dance

I met you in my spring of life
When love and life’s in bloom
Danced our first night away
Shadowed by the lover’s moon
Love lent warmth to future plans
As closeness grew our way
Cradled in each other’s arms
Absorbed in lover’s play
Spring eased into summer heat
And the wedding bells did ring
Waltzing through our reception
Floating high on lover’s wings
Summer was now in full force
Children gifted then our lives
Deepening the love we shared
As each new birth arrives
Throughout summer’s days
We ventured forward as a team
Dancing in the warmth of life
Living out our first daydream
Every summer comes to end
All fledglings must leave home
As our children made new lives
We found ourselves again alone
Autumn is approaching fast
Its chill warms our romance
Cradled in each other’s arms
Enraptured in October’s dance

Hello Brian

Stunning images you have delighted us with.  I could almost feel the warmth radiating from your heart from the love you feel for your wife and family.

Take care......Sue

Brian

Loved the way you seasoned life's changes, but throughout, kept the same straight road of love.
