RECALLING
We leant upon the cold damp stone
where mosses grew
and ferns emerged from crevices
and saw the lighted window panes
through filigree of waving boughs
that whispered in the breeze.
Beneath the pallid peach stained sky
in ecstasy our parted lips
sought solace in a firm embrace
as we recalled with nervous breath
the distant day when first we met
behind the distant panes.
