Remember When
Remember when I met you then
Clouds awash to fill that bar
For you held my heart the instant we passed
Remember when our lips embraced
My heart screamed out to savour your taste
As our bodies melded in that rented room
Remember when we lay in that van
All arms and legs listening to that band
On eighty miles of endless sand
Remember when we swam in that pool
A wedge in the rock to provide us relief
As fish nibbled away on toes and feet
Remember when we camped at Leveque
Our moonlight strolls in nothing but each other
Listening to the waves as we loved one another
I remember when you stepped on that jetty
The sun revealing what was hidden in white
That only I, would see later that night
I remember when you took that call
That would change some part of your beautiful world
That only time can hope to give back
Remember when our son was born
Him trying to suckle whilst given a cuddle
As his mother’s boobs were left in a muddle
Remember when the “Little King”
Was plucked from your womb with possible palsy
His little collar broken, among tears so salty
I will forever remember, that the light in your heart
Will forever shine and provide that spark
To a family of boys, and a husband, whose heart you hold
