Hard to believe you've been married so long already! A moment is a box of supple size. Praise be the years-peaceful, rich, and steady- Passing motionless before our eyes. Yet time is the eternal in disguise. For you now time is like a restless sea: In wind-blown haste above, below serene. Feelings flow in tidal ecstasy That climaxes in currents deep as dream. Hours, days, months, years one moment seem. Copyright by Nicholas Gordon. Free for personal or non-commercial use.
