When We Did Dance

Autumn gone, now winter frost, Reflections return, times long lost. Words, pictures plucked from air, Those I know are always there. Sixty years ago and more, When life and love could only soar. My world consumed by you and lust, Our future set, and robust. Abrupt and sudden, torn in two, Scattered leaves, no more glue. Whistling wind, and desert rain, Drowned my pleas, all in vain. Remember me, you almost married, Then sudden shift, and love miscarried. Among your dreams, perchance, Are those years when we did dance.
