Together
By TN Healy
(Lines written for my wife Lilian on our 50th wedding anniversary.)
Come, place your hand in mine
And come with me;
Together let us stroll
Along life's path in time,
With thoughts united
By the love we share,
And faith arising from
Each other's soul;
And, let us taste the vision
Of our eyes,
And savour life and living
To the full;
Give homage to the Maker
Of it all
(The Winter, Spring and Summer
and the Fall)
Reflected in the landscape
All around
- An idyll of existence in our world
With joy o'erlying sadness
Grief and pain -
Until we reach the stile
On heaven's path,
Where we may cross together
And renew
The gift of living
Leading gently on
To blest eternity.
This publication of Together is respectfully dedicated to President George W Bush and Mrs Laura Bush.

Oh, your Dad's a great romantic, James. No wonder your Mother has kept him all these years!
Please pass on my best wishes to them both.
Done MissJ.

That's a wonderful expression of faith, hope and love. Your dad's a sweety at heart, I can tell. And eloquent as well.
Gen, he never stops talking if that's what you mean.
