pile of rocks
Barely knowing each other's faces
But a few short days
Upon meeting, very few paces
Either of them strays
Deep the stirrings of a forever
This start of something new
Quickly drawn, one to another
Profound, their love grew.
She liked her funny way with words
One loved her southern twang
Colorfully weaving stories
Of Natives and preying birds
She liked the songs wrote and sang.
She laid her head in her lap
She took her first real deep breath.
From that moment, every day
Was so much better than the rest.
Their lives began that night
As they sat on a pile of rocks.
She did her laundry that week
She gave her a pair of her socks.
She met her mom and her dad
She let her drive her car.
Oh the miles they would travel
To all the parks, near and far
By day pointing out the hawks.
Exploring out in the sticks
Not watching any clocks
In that old '66
By night, they were calling
Out the name of every star.
She loved the kid and read to her
She played her dad's guitar.
Daily growing more
Than who they were
Just the day before
