We floated through that year together falling as a grain of sand, through the hourglass of time from Eden’s Edge unplanned. Those planes, in shifting, gifted us with vistas of our heart. We shared the passion born inside each new rainbow’s start. Mirrors of our eyes became the sunlight that we knew. Longing reached, with thirsty hearts, to grasp our seconds few. Whispers from our lips escaped unheard. Feelings felt without the need of word. Life we cherished soon became us. Different time, and yet the same us. Footsteps tuned with echoes from a distant church yard bell softly ringing, each day’s end as in each other’s arms we fell. It was a year of magic memories born with love to fill. It lasted just a moment then, but lingers ever still.
