TIME

As each day passes
seconds, minutes, hours
their turn take
my thoughts are yours
unerringly they concentrate;
pleasant are they mostly
dreamily at best
concerns rarely appear
pertaining mostly to
practicalities of life
confidence assures me
your commitment is made
never to be broken
never to be waived
we love each other
we can face what it takes.
