At the Height of Her Beauty

She’s at the height of her beauty now At sixty, I am sixtyfour I breathe her silent whispering We’ve drawn the curtains, shut the door To dream our dreams, He his she hers And gift each other each other’s lot Wrapped in kisses, tied in tears The wave that wells up in my eyes She sees and rushing meets head on The moment is the ocean of time We leave the sands, float gently on She cups my mouth with tiny hands She steps on me with tiny feet She loves me with her lovely eyes And our drowning is so sweet
