My River and I were as one,
The glorious sun shining on us.
The River so placid,
So still,
A wonderful day for us both.
Then I saw them,
A couple of significant age
Walking beside each other,
As they obviously had
Had for many, many years.
So wonderful to see,
But then I was saddened
They were walking hand in hand,
As my lover and I used to.
So wonderful for them,
Such a sadness for me.
