Counting Down – v2

Counting down to two years,
our moments of memories
of the start of our lives anew
the start of our dating, our courtship,
engagement, joining in marriage
soon to fall on the calendar, our shared
calendar of our shared life together
minutes, second, days, months, twenty-four hours
starting this month, tomorrow our first time
together, studying Your word, two weeks
and our first date.

So much joy in remembering that excitement,
the learning about one another
the revelation of children, beautiful girls
to spend time with you, with you all;
Exploring new feelings, parallel history,
odd, repeating, coincidences, curious
snippets of shared names, clustered hints
by the Creator of safety, belonging
two years like minutes, etched in our hearts
permanent marker, indelible ink
living on forever.

doing it again, starting with remembering
the Tuesday after Labor Day, the start of the
32-week Disciple 1 bible study, yesterday
