We are

We are going to play music
eat cherry chocolates,
share blackberry brandy,
chop and wash and pour and sleep.

We are going to call eachother
by the names our mothers gave us
and watch the children find magic
that we dare not dispel.

We are going to laugh
And maybe in it, cry some.
We will hold on tight, knowing
what we don't want to know.
