I sat there
and wondered for a moment
about that look
I sensed in your marble black eyes

remember!
that Friday
a look deeper than ocean's bed
and a thought
beyond the little bird's song
and the shepherd's flute
mysterious, sad

yet a message, a child's wish
swept the meadow
frightened
we started friends remember dear
and friends read friends minds they say

I do not know
what the future is holding for either one of us
but I know this for sure;

if you give me your hand
then together we shall
cross that narrow bridge
to the other side
of this mountain called uncertainty
and build our own Eden Paradise
