TOGETHER STILL


Let me hold your hand as we go downhill,
We've shared our strength, and share it still.
It hasn't been easy to make the climb,
But the way was eased by your hand in mine.

Like the lake, our life has had ripples too,
Ill-health and worries, and payments due,
With happy pauses along the way,
A graduation, a raise in pay.

At the foot of the slope, we will stop and rest,
Look back, if you will, we've been truly blessed,
We've been spared the grief of being torn apart
By death,or divorce,or a broken heart.

The view ahead is one of the best,
Just a little bit farther, and we can rest.
We move more slowly, but together still,
Let me hold your hand as
.................we go
...................................Downhill
