Moonlight Walk With evening slipping in and street lamps winking on, we walk the main street of our small home town. Arm in arm and with the slow pace that our age will only allow, I watch the snow falling on your now gray hair. With the holiday lights reflecting, you look at me and I realize that even after all these years I still get lost in your eyes. With a boldness of a much younger version of myself, I halt our late night walk, and your endless conversation about your sister, by drawing your beautiful face to mine with these old but still tender hands and stealing a kiss. I smile as I hear that young girl laugh that has never left you and hear you quietly whisper “you old coot” in my loving ear. |

I love how he breaks up the talk of her sister (and I love the detail in the poem). This is where I want to be some day. Alison |
