As if no time had passed
they were here once again
together at last
after the rain

Forget-me-not blooms
lined their paths for a year
each lilac flower
bringing a tear

Chattering, warbling
each golden sound
brought a memory alive
ran emotions aground

the year lived apart
had proved long and hard
the journey at sea
left some feathers charred

and now the reunion
as fragile as glass
that nothing could spoil,
no shadow could cast

the feelings did grow
surely and fast
and they knew it right then
that this love, it would last
