Memory
Time and distance will change it not,
Two romantic souls know what they've got,
Gazing through cloud the moon is seen,
That silver orb and the love in- between.
Reflect on moments you have shared,
Cherish them all unspoken or declared,
Presence is greater than a vacant space,
Absence makes fonder for those with grace.
Tears sweep clear they will quickly dry,
There's a sparkle in each eager eye,
Memories they flood coming to the fore,
Dreams of yester-year are alive once more.
