Where Tomorrow Touches Forever

to my grandparents

The years go by;
Days layer delicately upon days,
moments upon moments.

She finds a certain sureness in his smile—
A simplicity that transcends
Tears and worries and the questions
that continue to ask themselves of her.

He insists that Love is all there is.

 

 

So she loves him.

 

 

The years wrap around him;
Second after second whispers through,
yet he knows there is something deep inside—

Deep inside of him, deep inside of her.

Something that takes those sweet seconds
and imbeds them
graciously
into the sheer Beauty of his life.

 

 

There is something here.

 

 

Something that transcends
Time;
Yet her love, and not Time
makes him immortal.

 

 

So he loves her.

 

 

The years have passed by
sooner than a smile
[quicker than a kiss]

They did not miss a moment—
They clutched tightly to the winds of Past, Present, Future—

 

 

There is a distinct feeling of Forever here.

 

 

It is as though the sun has wrapped
its resplendence
through their veins
and they breathe the balmy air
of passion
and of prayer.

 

 

They were made for this.

 

 

Their love grew from the Earth;

From the Earth, they grew
to Love.

 

 

So they love one another.

Since I've been with the Writer's Cafe, I've always known you to be a good writer. But, this! This is absolutely fantastic! This piece is stunningly beautiful, and it acts as a brilliant beacon for the rest of your work. It is a lighthouse that welcomes readers to visit the land upon which it stands, like a monument to poetry. It has the ability and never fails to reach out and touch the reader's soul.

Outstanding work, and I wouldn't change a thing about it. My only advice: Wrap it up with a pretty bow and publish this immediately!

Thank you SO MUCH for sharing this one! Stunningly beautiful, with a depth of passion and enduring love that few know today how to kindle. You have captured their loving essence so well with your words that will honor them forever. May we all learn from them how to love like this...

What a touching love story.
Makes me believe all over again that love can last forever.

"The years wrap around him;

deep inside of him, deep inside of her.
Something that takes those sweet seconds

into the blanket of Beauty called his life. "

The blanket of Beauty called his life.

Couldn't be more beautifully written.

Truly and honestly inspired.
