Forever Tonight

·TheCrookedPath

Tonight the stars shall be a witness Family in a sky of pews The smiling moon officiates This holiness tween me and you. I’ll be your man, your thief of moments Vows with neither craft nor art Ourlips, our skin, our bodies wed Until this night’s death bids us part. These memories our child shall be Capricious and too bold for some Keep her well, and think of me Still fondly when the first rays come.

TheCrookedPath

Not much to say. I'm a father of four, working to keep my pygmies fat and happy. I have always liked Robert Frost, but a recent book that I'd stumbled across introduced me to John Donne.
