The Richness of Life
The richness of life, its most intimate associations
are shared with a partner
as the smiles shine through and the laughter breaks out
yes, the Grand Canyon may be the perfect backdrop
but so may be a nifty dark little alley in the heart of Soho...
and when the tears well up in our eyes, it matters not
that Niagara Falls is in front of us, or whether we're on a park bench
somewhere
recalling loved ones who've stumbled and fallen prey to mortality
because the bond between us is unshakeable and without it
we can no longer imagine pressing on with this road trip we call Life
