Future

This is the
Future past
Tense with our
Anticipation we are
Each a lathe of God busy
Making the future day-to-day.
I look into her eyes on the pillow
Next to me gazing back at me
Her smile warm we are one
Lying here in bed listening
To the thunder roll above
On a lazy afternoon in
Love happy to be
Together to
Share a
Meal
A bed
A leisurely
Conversation
Our lives making
A future less tense
We will have loved as
Well as we are able
What more can
We do but to
Love and
To be
Loved now
Not just in future.
