Vaulting above us with heavenly blue
Sunlight played true through each clandestine day.
Was ever time better spent than with you
In that longago summer, when love found it's way
Into young willing hearts filled with desire?
Future adventures were put upon hold.
We had more than sun then to set us on fire.
Our summertime love-tryst never turned cold,
Exploring each facet and unearthing then
Freedom's expression to feed love's demand
In ways of delight remembered again,
When summer and ardour inevitably calmed.
Leaving us choices to make then and there
Of lifetime devotion to each other's care.
