You and I will walk together Through the dense forest Between the tallest trees Following this simple path To see just where it leads You and I will walk together Beside the mighty river Watching the water rush by As the ducks diligently swim Across to the other side You and I will walk together Through the flower garden We'll take the time to appreciate The radiant beauty of each blossom Residing in this glorious place You and I will walk together Along the rugged shoreline Past the children playing To the sheltered harbor Where the lighthouse stands proud You and I will walk together Down the city streets In front of the tall buildings Through the deserted park To pause in front of the fountain You and I will walk together Across the highest mountains Through the green valleys To the small clearing Where we'll have a picnic You and I will walk together In the warm summer rain We'll feel totally refreshed As the rain cleanses us Washing away our fears You and I will walk together Amongst the various people That make up this world of ours Two lives joined as one life Two hearts beating in perfect rhythm You and I will walk together Through the minutes that give way To the hours which build the days That form the weeks, months, and years Of the rest of our life as man and wife Yes, you and I will walk together . . .

A beautiful poem about a love that will endure. Enjoyed! Speak when you are angry--and you'll make the best speech you'll ever regret...Laurence J. Peter |

I love the way you write about nature. Woods, shoreline, etc. VERY well done! Live for love. Without love, you don't live. |

Great outlook on love, great poem! A quarter of a century must pass, for the writer to understand what and why he writes. |
