~Through The Years~
 

A Romance Acrostic

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 

Through the years much time has passed;

Hath withered quick, like winter's rose —

R emember, tho', we've made it last.

O'er every year our love still grows.

Unspoken words of loving linger,

Glide deftly through the gilded veil.

Hope, delicate as a lady's finger,


Tea cup in hand as she sets sail...

However, there's still work to do,

Even if the fire's not as strong.

 

Yearnings fade, dying embers, blue

Evermore – with you – I still belong.

As golden sunbeams break in morn,

Resplendently, your face adorn...

Starlings serenade our love in song.
