Memories

I looked back...skipped lightly over years
until I met you again.  My step bounded
and flew from star to star, as one nears
a universe of fire.  Gasping young, I rounded
a planet suspended
as time and
eternity spoke unended
in rhyme.
 
I looked back...tripped lightly over seconds
of love with you again.  My heart breathed 
and throbbed from word to word, as one beckons
a memory unfolded
as life and
death met embolded
in rhyme.
