Now

Now ,
when infatuation
and fascination
for rainbows has waned ,

now
when gray and black
has replaced
the splendor of spring ,

now
when few odd wrinkles
try to compete
with twinkles in the eyes ,

darling ,
now is the time
to look into each others eyes and
love each other like never before .

now
is the time
to resurrect
ourselves ,
to be
better than
ever before .
