You and me, me and you
did the baby thing
and made it through
learned to laugh
at our mistakes
found out quickly
ones we dare... not make
whether acting the fool
or playing it cool
boy and girl go to school,
learn life is sweeter
touched...
by the golden rule,
looking at the world
as something bold and new,
found lots of things to experience
are much more fun ...when there are two.
Get together to make a family ...and a home.
after playing by ourselves for so long,
deciding against the idea of growing old
...and being alone.
born to be wild,
until we balance the equation
man plus woman ...equals child.
and build anew
with next generations learning tools
using timeless methods
guided by ancient rules
find even though getting the best of both worlds
in the gene pool, doesn't always happen
...the first time through
multiplied by a sense of determination
divided by the resistance to resignation
to rise to the occasion
despite the harshness of the physical reality
times the spiritual ingenuity
as we read between the lines
and channel our secret ability
using the apps
to read the signs
magnified to coincide
with the natural rhythm
within our heart
+of mind
with the acuity of countless
meaningful lifetimes
...divided by you times me...
with a generous helping of humility
raised to the power
of the flower
times
the honeybee
