in his wayward and whimsical
wandering he watched
her approach and wondered
up to the moment
and then again
beyond the moment
on into the next
who she was
who was she
as she met him
and met him again
with a kiss
who was she
who she was
and then again
and then again
with a kiss
who was she
who she was
with a kiss
until they were old
without knowing
they were old
together
