	For Rachel
	----------

Dead flowers, lively hours, and
Kisses in the street,
Thoughtful talks and wandering walks
When we chance to meet.

A touch, so soft, that sends aloft
A thousand flightless birds;
You shiver and smile and just for a while
I'm at a loss for words.

We wonder, we think, we laugh, we wink,
We realize there's no tomorrow;
There is only today and we search for a way
To live the time that we borrow.
