I am old but not so old
I have traveled to everywhere
And nowhere
From the beginning of time
To the ends of the Earth
I’ve encountered strange things
And run from the mundane
There is much before me
But nothing behind me
Though time has passed slowly
I am rapidly wasting away

For R & D…many more happy years ahead! ❤
You chose to look beyond the skin
Instead you searched the soul within
And found me more than flesh and bone
A human being, a woman sown
From pieces that were once misplaced
Until I looked upon your face
And with your heart, you took my soul
Two as one, together, whole

She read the words
Unaware
Of what they said
She looked for an answer
Unaware
Of the question
She turned away
Unaware
He was there

An old man rocks gently
Lost in his thoughts
In his own little world
An old woman sits next to him
Rocking gently in time
Her hand on his
Lost in her thoughts
In her own little world
They startle
And stare at each other
Wondering who it is
Staring back
They smile
For a mere second the memory is there
And they rock, hand in hand
In their own little world
