For My Soul Mate

through springtime leaves
to barren trees
by your side is where
I want to be
from playful lovers filled with jest
to old and gray
with empty nest
from smooth smiling faces
and joyful eyes
till happy times
carve happy lines
through passion and love
through joyful tears
through treasured memories
of blissful years
with time for play
and time for chores
let all my moments
be entwined with yours
