Today, in the Garden
we were holding hands
I turned to you and said, "I love you"
as I have hundreds of times
but today
it was different
tears emerged from my eyes, at the tenderness of it.
You paused as if drinking in my words.
This pausing to accept my love as precious as your words,
" I love you , too."
and knowing in my heart
that it is true.
