On winters snowbound nights
We sit together by the fire
The Maple wood glowing red
As sleep drifts upon us
Like a billowing cloud

Dreams appear once more
Of long ago days of our youth
And we open the book of love
That we wrote together
Page by page
across the fleeting years

I see you splendid
in your beautiful Maytime
Your eyes as grey
as a foggy morning.
They are filled with memories
Of our passions.
Hiding the ravages of a lifetime.

I hold my hand to yours
And we still connect like two stars
Caught in each other gravity
for eternity.
