Sun

The last time we saw the sun
We smiled
It made our cheeks warm
And our eyes glow
We dipped our toes
In cool water
Sang a song
Danced a little dance
It was a good day
She giggles
Now we lie still
Let the light from the window
Cover our bed
Watch the clouds passing
And the trees swaying
This is where I remember you
In the sky
Flying
Swooping 
Soaring
I cannot remember if 
You came to me
Or I came to you
All that matters is that
We are together
Always she says
Reaching for my hand
Even when the sun stops shining
And winter comes again
I will be with you for all time
She says
The first 
The last
And the in-between
We smile
Yellow circles in our eyes.
