Adding to Stars, Picnicking

When time is well spent, its value shows,
its lifetime glows.

When we know the way a crystal glass gleams,
The way a ring turns on a finger as memories come clean,
The way we know all that -
The theories, delicacies,butterflies,
and full laughing hugs-

There is nowhere we'd rather be,
than in the boating party
in any century,
enjoying the sea, the tea cakes, the clinking crystal
the picnic table,
the smiles that will last into evening, adding to stars,
morning building eternity.
