The two of us walk
this beautiful day,

sharing life and smiling,
down winding paths
of woven stems
Following footprints to
chilled winter landings
Counting leaves as they fall
in flickering fashions of
assorted shades and pastels
Painting blue skies
with heartbeat brushstrokes,
creating a masterpiece
Pointing to whipped cream clouds,
seeing a castle in the sunset
glowing for only us,
and even though we are apart,
we are still together...

walking, falling in love
all over again
