Happy sixth anniversary! As years pass, the coating wears away, Perhaps revealing more than one can see, Perhaps revealing more than one can say. Yet what one feels is more than ecstasy. So is love far more than one can bear -- In grace, in truth, in sacrifice, in power. Xylophones play on unheard, the air Tingling somewhere deep beneath the hour, Heaven within the heart that seeks it there. Copyright by Nicholas Gordon. Free for personal or non-commercial use.
