Hold On - Give Me Your Hand

My wife and I do oft
deign through the neighborhood to walk
and when we do we silent glide
though sometimes we will talk.

Through decades long and decades sweet
we’ve been through thick and thin
We love to watch just where we’re goin’
and reflect on where we’ve been.

The rugged road is slick with snow
this wintry time of year
and so we bundle up so warm
'tis the treacherous ground we fear.

Still, shuffling out the door we go
to make our rounds with faith we dare
“Hold on - give me your hand”
I say to her - she, so fair.

So o’er the icy track we go
a-walkin’ hand in hand,
we make our way in silence warmed
with the glowing song of a gentle lovers’ band.
