We came home together

I searched for my birth certificate

We looked at the moon in the east

Earlier our chairs were set at the right angle

To catch the last of the setting sun


Between then and now

And often always

Our conversation was accompanied

With a glass of chilled Sauvignon blanc


These are the new beginnings

Sure and certain

Excitements of the young love

Of a second generation


Later, without time for preparation

Before the pyjamas could be unfolded

We were held in our arms, buttons undone

Again as earlier, we touched the moon and the sun
