Wonder Returns

Once at 5 he
found a riot of
Wildflowers in the woods,

A shaft of light through
The trees and the world
turned all colour and
Beauty overwhelming
Even for a 5 year old

Decades and lovers
Come and go until
He is left with his
Instruments and silence

Until one day they meet
And in time she reached for him
sky clad in a room full
Of sunlight and wonder
And her touch is as
Overwhelming as that
Long ago day of
A different beauty,

But still
Beauty
Not just her
But the wonder
Of love
