Me And You

You once told me my darling
That you could remember
When I could not keep my hands off of you
And you loved every minute of it

I too can remember those days
And I too loved every touch
Every kiss and the feel of your body
Lying next to me over those many years

Over those many years we shared our love
I can never remember a time
When I reached out for you
Or you reached out for me

That you or I ever said
I'm too tired or didn't feel like love making
Some have talked about a perfect love
If there ever was one
We shared it

I have tried to share these memories
With our children
Grandchildren and Great-grandchildren
In the lines of my poetry
Of course some are to preacious to share

It would be like taking a precious stone
And shattering it into may pieces
Best they be buried in our hearts
And into the earth to which we return
For they are precious only to lovers like you and I
