The blue asphalt aligns silver maple trees,

As do cotton candy clouds, soft and bright;

Then happy little feathered songbird friends,

Some in tuxedos of rainbow’s colors, blends

Voices as they serenade lovers tonight;

While fingers intertwine in delicacies.



The elder years have not brought to an end,

As organs of touch sweet communion revive;

One heart beats for one in the still of night,

An intimacy satisfied from lover’s delight;

Their life’s journey as one unending drive,

While one hand cleaves to one eternal friend.
