The Book

The Book


She was the book he couldn’t close ...
a deeply hidden ache.
Though time forgets the heart still knows
of love for loving’s sake.

She was a dream from long ago
and, true, the years have worn,
but in his heart and in his soul
her beauty lingers on.

The autumn leaves, his mind can bear,
and too, the winter's rage ...
if it is true that love is fair
and passion doesn't age.
