Together At Last

They are laughing like naughty children calling out As they run through the sweet smelling heather Watching for a gnarled tree trunk to sit and rest about Looking up into the sky they're wondering whether The clouds will break and fine rain will fall Nothing could  mar this moment of joy of being together They sit close arms entwined shining eyes showing all The love they have kept hidden all this while Life has been tough apart as they waited for this  call No more do they need a watch, time is no longer a trial Together for always, kisses exchanged, love songs sung Touching her sweet smelling hair he whispers with a smile The years have not aged us as we waited for this moment we are forever young
