Happy twenty-first anniversary!
A time both to reflect and celebrate.
Perhaps the years turn choices into fate.
Perhaps one chooses daily what to be.
Yet though at every moment one is free,
Time and love join forces to create
Worlds in which we live, a passionate
Embrace that shapes the will's topography.
Now you are a part of who I am,
The wheel within the wheel I call myself,
Yearning with my yearning, as two branches
From one tree reach together for the sun.
Intimacy floods the inner dam,
Reaches out across the inner gulf,
Self-healing through a love that sings and dances,
Turning two time travelers into one.
