Description Love took us to the river, where we made a summer wish,
and watched as diamonds hid amongst the tangled reeds.
Sunlight danced upon the backs of leaping silver fish.
The land was ours. It had given us its deeds.

We trod in footfalls where once verdant grass tinged ombre
sun-seared. bending blades with sweeps of meadowsweet
then rested neath a willow caught in its gentle slumber
amd revived outselves with kisses till replete.

No time, just dandelion clocks, ticking on a summer breeze
as future tucked itself away betwixt the trees,somehow
and the past was diminishing in the water's rippled tease.
As true lovers we knew the meaning of The Now.

I took a couple of lines from a free verse poem that I wrote a while back. This one has a different meaning though.
