Love at Any Age
Oh banish pain and grief
if even but for a time so brief
and let us once more take the time
to know love that perfect rhyme
As Spring follows the Winter stark
let us find the warmth of love to hark
and touch the fires deep within
to share and perhaps begin again
A beginning springing from the past
a renewal so surprising to last
a fusion of twin souls in need
a new rose among life’s weeds
Love is more then we may understand
for it has the power to take us in hand
and set our feet upon a road like new
to travel together as lovers are wont to do
Old we be but love cares not of age
and carries all across our mortal page
to leave our story with all the rest
and we knowing ours is the best
