We Look at Each Other

Another year has passed, swiftly
We look at each other, face to face
Remembering
When only yesterday it all began
Meeting, romancing, we were young
Now it is married, harried, sometimes
Threadbare but we look at each other
And we have so much to see
A husband, a wife, parents are we
A new role we adjust to as in-laws
(that's us)
And we are told we are grandparents!
How can that be...
No longer young but still in love
We look at each other
And I thank God from above.
