YOU AND IA Sonnet for John There must have been a time before I met you, Yet strange to think of you and I apart. There must have been a time before I loved you;Who filled my thoughts and dreams? Who held my heart? There must have been some other loves we knew then, However fleeting; other lives to try. There must have been a day we simply lost them, When we put our dreams together, you and I. Then you and I and love were young together, 0ur lives so full, such happiness and tears. Now you and I and love grow old together, But quiet now, made mellow by the years. And still you're there, as you were from the start - Filling my thoughts and dreams, holding my heart. Liz
