Sweet like Grapefruit Juice

Sweet
Like grapefruit juice
Time with you

Bittersweet

I’d like to think more sweet
Than bitter
How ’bout you?

Yes, always
Slightly
Bitter in
The wind down
To
Goodbye
For now at best

But so sweet
In the
Hello
How goes it
Then
How goes the rest

Citrus bright
And light
Embrace
The look of welcome on your face
And mine too
Reflections of
Grace sugar-dusting Past
Look back
Behold the view:

How far we’ve come
Each of
You
Me
In our separate
Walking shoes
And fortunate
To meet again
And share
Each
Of time’s new news

We break a fast
From fellowship
We jest
How time, it flies
Since then
And even now

This time with you is
Bittersweet
And sweeter still

Than memory
