A love in verse

Twenty Years Ago

Twenty years ago – this very time

What stage you were, I don’t recall – 

Cassie was on the way, and, oh,

How the world would change!


How things were I hadn’t known

And now I knew – well, knew much more – 

Like how love changes shape and how

It deepens. Not just for a child

But for the woman who brought her out

And how love never ceases to grow

For both. Thank you, my love, for her.

My 68th

All the cares and despairs of busy days

Can never outweigh my deep content

For I live by your eyes...

Juvenalia

When I remember boyhood dreams I’m sad

That all I would accomplish was not done.

‘Not all’? I might more truthfully say...
