there you were
at the bottom of the aisle,
the love in your eyes
drawing me near.
Up the aisle we climbed
And through them we went . .
as one.
Hand in hand.
Yours in mine.
Mine in yours.
Feet blistered, hearts tired
But together…one.
Icy cold
still hand in hand
till the light shone
at the end of the tunnel.
we’ve been . . .
together as one.
We have made peace
after the famines.
In togetherness
we have found
strength and joy,
forgiveness and grace
Happy Valentines Day
