Oh so far away

seemed any sense

of memory,

of that once held

love between two souls,

lost in their own wander.

Life speaks

and the shadows disappear,

standing in the sunlight,

weathering a winter thaw.

When life was morose

suddenly appears

a sign from her own hands,

a peaceful reckoning.

Oh to find the beauty in life,

it is held in the hands

of those we love,

we can surely smile.
