In a River

To the river we go,
hand in hand,
arm in arm.

Sunlight shining,
oh! we're in the light now.

Smiling, sitting, wishing.
On a prayer, or on a heartbeat.
We emanate our desires, and
wish for the feeling, that hope
to come true.

Oh you know,
and so do I.

A call from a friend,
and note in a book.
An old photograph,
a friendly reminder.

Thank you.
I have a lot more of "you's"
that I even knew I had.

Love is all around,
Hope is still there.

With a smile,
with a hope,
an out reached hand,
with a firm grim.

Now. here I am,
and at least for today,
the sun is shining,
and that wind still a blowin'

It's a summer's breeze in a frozen winter morning.
A much needed warmth.
