True Love, 1973

She and I were
 lying in the grass
  one day and dreaming
   at the sky.


We thought of
 marriage, children
  and even the
   thought of happiness.


But we saw it
 could never work
  since we never
   saw eye to eye.


So, we stood up
 stretched our legs,
  ran through the grass
   and went our separate ways.


The poem should end here,
 but one postscript.


We met once again,
 on a concrete meadow,
  we said hello and smiled,
   but what was once is now a dream.


Dreams are not real,
 but they should be.


Peace.
