FLASHES OF MAGIC
The first shy peek-under-the-lashes look.
The first tender moment the softest lips meet.
Hesitant is the first gentle touch that awakens feelings unknown.
each priceless second burned into everlasting memory.
Moving forward, making choices, following destinies road.
Paths cross, lovers meet, soul mates joined as one.
Celestial euphoria pales in the light of a newborn babe.
First tooth, first steps, high school graduation.
We grow, we learn, we teach, side by side, hand in hand.
Sharing wisdom and knowledge of our years with our children's children.
Reflecting back, flashes of magic illuminate the brightness of the life we lived.
Then the time comes for us to pass from this world to the next...
Then in a supernova, infinitesimal blink...we're gone.
