Regeneration

By: Llewelyn Nicholas

When we're alone, my love, just you and I -
As when we first played court in darkened lanes,

We talked together of each other's lives
And deeply gazed into those love filled eyes.

For now we’ve been together silver years,
The lines have deepened with the tolls of time,

Yet, I know that you’ll be ever mine
Through times of happiness and times of tears.

Our fledglings now have flown our nest;
The time is ours to fill just as we feel –

As once gain we find our lives alone,
Renew the deepest feelings not yet lost.

Make love to me with skillful, practiced zeal,
Then say to me, "My love is yours to own."
