Do you remember? We watched the clouds fly across that June sky,
wondering about our lives, watching that black-blue sky.
It was long ago, we were full of life, in blazing afternoon sky,
and two hearts keeping time, beating under the moon, June sky.
We pledged our love before our family and friends, a noon, June sky,
Settling-in to life together, playful, joyous, a spoon and swoon sky.
We grew older, not necessarily wiser, encountering an out-of-tune sky,
yet I’d not change it, not at all, not even for a jewel-strewn sky
The jewels are here and there, you see, felt and heard in the moon-croon sky,
the moments, still, we gaze and share. (Do you remember? )There, that star and moon sky.
This is a ghazal for today’s (Day 13) NaPoWriMo. I can’t get the formatting right, but they are couplets with some long lines. 🙂
