Of moonlight walking, fingers entwined
Of bright morning light
Of singing in the early hours
Of a smile and eyes that light up the world like stars
Of sunrise and sunset
Holding and holding on
Of hope and stillness and tenderness
Of touch
Of laughter and curiosity
Of spirit and freedom and feeling alive
Of watching you watching me
Of kisses and goodbyes
and hugs that won't let go
Of walking and talking and mysteries unfolding
Of life
Of looking forward
Of letters and growing
Of sharing and knowing
Of sweetness and longing,
passion and belonging
Of gazing upward
Of dancing
Of driving and songs
Of singing along
Of the way your hair smells, your skin feels
Of the way you see the world
Of the way you love God
Of getting closer, nearer
Of seeing you relate
Of the way others admire
the way you communicate
Of light and shade, quietness and noise
Of the way love returns to you
Of movement and grace, elegance and poise
Of manners and kindness,
gentleness and refinedness
Of compassion and care
Of selflessness
Of simple things
Of words that don't come
that don't need to be said
Of tears that I caused
and those that I shed
Of everything we gave and then gave away
Because...
