The Dream Poem by Francie Lynch

I saw once in your eyes the dream of love;
A knowledge in the heart that pricked our tears;
And shadows were unwelcome as we strove
Towards a single pulse in coming years.

And when we loved that love was not unkind
To me or you; we have our hearts in hand.
Words one year ago now lovingly bind
Us still, forever ringed by a silent band.

In years to come we'll stock a wealthy store;
Tonight unfolds a vision without stain:
A love that's pure, strong, living and much more.
There is no glass to reflect our gain.

Our two hearts pledged in the same direction;
Our two lives fast in moonlight and in sun.
