Years are often seen as such
Especially when we miss so much
The blessings of a gentle touch
From one whose love we cannot rush
But years are only specks of sand
When seen through what our Lord has planned
For those of us who understand
Why children amble hand-in-hand
Like yours and mine
Dear hearts must suffer
When waiting for a lifelong lover
To soothe Love's brow
When life gets tougher
And choppy seas make journeys rougher
Yet sweeter are the ties that bind
When who we love is on our mind
And hearts rejoice for what we find
At last when tears are left behind
No years for us-
Just weeks to wait
Until at last we celebrate
The fun and joys of our first date
With love's pure-patient perfect mate
