Time does fade the clarity <br /> Of a memory. Without exception <br /> Even those of love lost. But <br /> The trace of what was yesterday <br /> Still manages to rekindle the <br /> Hearth within the soul. <br /> <br /> Those days, so long ago were <br /> The breath of life. No kiss <br /> Was ever sweeter. No touch <br /> Was ever more comforting. <br /> Love was to be and not to be, all <br /> In the same instant. <br /> <br /> Passion and pain. You can not <br /> Have either without the other. <br /> But what does it matter. If, <br /> In one brief moment, your hearts <br /> Beat together as one. Free spirits <br /> Daring to dance on the sea, and <br /> Kiss the horizon. <br /> <br /> We did. We danced on the sea and <br /> Kissed the horizon. Darling, <br /> That, has made all the difference.<br /><br />Barbara Fuller<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/we-kissed-the-horizon/
