Falls Swell Or All's Well...

To speak in words the other longs to hear
To break the smile bank and long disclose
the thumping of the heart when drawing near

affection and the slip of guard it shows
We winter in the warmth of our embrace
We need few words for each of us just knows

that look upon the other's shining face
and so the revolution silent spins
while lines of worry skitter and erase

we find that happiness alone begins
While all the world grows still upon it's wheels
We tremble in a kiss to make amends-
