Our Gift

 

Our Gift

come . . .let us sit by the winter fire

and tell the stories of our heart

for there is a touch of spring in the air

i yet long for that everlasting time

where the wonder of new-ness

permeates the air

and kisses my longing hello

once again

yes, i can see her

dancing down the lane of my aspirations

adorned with smiles

pigtails

and a pink dress

spring my love

my first love

a very special time

is upon us once again

so let us sit by the fire

and revisit that which has been

but comes again

none too soon

but always on time

a touch of Spring

a very precious time
