For Theo
It’s a supreme moment
I suppose,
Strolling down the
Human road
When you realize
The mileposts
That you’ve passed,
Those you see ahead,
Those hidden around
Corners over hills,
Some you know about,
Some unknown
A surprise waiting
To happen,
What I’ve done
What I’ve missed,
As I wipe the sweat,
The dust from my brow
Peer into the mists
For things still hid,
The most wonderful
Biggest thing I ever did
Is knowing you
Since we were kids,
Still stepping strong
Arm in arm
Past the sign that reads,
Married forty years.
