Closed-Eyed Kisses
Luv, I look forward to the days
hairs have lightened many shades,
and experience is whittled on our faces.
When upon a swinging bench
fingers woven by the clench
of well worn hands still withstand
all they withstood -
the bad and good.
When the laughter in our eyes
displaces tears of yesteryear,
because we learned ourselves
and then relearned each other -
so we could love as friends
much deeper than as lovers.
And in the end our progeny
will have discovered
closed-eyed kisses
have no expiration date.
