I Know We’ll Be Together Again

Neither the sun at noon Or the soft breeze at dusk Nor the dizzying midnight moon Is required when I see you smile, I’m child-like beside you, Always whispering love Into your ear, Wanting you to hear The rhythm of my heartbeats, Never doubt what you mean to me, I saw you growing up, Adorable and dream-like and laughing With your older sister, And I cannot resist saying Time has been your ally, Your beautiful, feminine mystique Only increases with intensity, I know we’ll be together again On café streets Reciting sacred poetry As small birds serenade us On an avenue of trees.
