When I First Read Your Eyes

To true friendship...



Though it be fifty years ago
                      That I first read your eyes
The story that they guaranteed
                      Has ne’er worn a disguise
 
That friends forever, we would be
                   Through life’s uncertain ride
And always I have felt the love
                       Of your voice by my side

It’s not that quarrels never tripped
                  Or knocked us to the ground
It’s that the bond that made us one
                  Preserved the love we found

On mornings such as this, I think
               Through fog and mist and rain
Of that first time I read your eyes
                     The sun then shines again
