Remember When

Remember when I met you then Clouds awash to fill that bar For you held my heart the instant we passed Remember when our lips embraced My heart screamed out to savour your taste As our bodies melded in that rented room Remember when we lay in that van All arms and legs listening to that band On eighty miles of endless sand Remember when we swam in that pool A wedge in the rock to provide us relief As fish nibbled away on toes and feet Remember when we camped at Leveque Our moonlight strolls in nothing but each other Listening to the waves as we loved one another I remember when you stepped on that jetty The sun revealing what was hidden in white That only I, would see later that night I remember when you took that call That would change some part of your beautiful world That only time can hope to give back Remember when our son was born Him trying to suckle whilst given a cuddle As his mother’s boobs were left in a muddle Remember when the “Little King” Was plucked from your womb with possible palsy His little collar broken, among tears so salty I will forever remember, that the light in your heart Will forever shine and provide that spark To a family of boys, and a husband, whose heart you hold
