I Remember

When we met

Your smile lit up, mirroring mine

I remember.

I was nervous

You made me laugh

I remember.

We danced a little, drank a little

We shared our hopes and dreams

I remember.

It was late. I was tired

I didn't want to leave your side, you didn't want to leave mine,

So we stayed together.

I remember

When we met.

Dedicated to my late husband, pictured above.
