ALL THE YEARS ARE MET IN THEE

I knew joy last evening
And today, rolling home
With lovely Kate
It was late.. very late
We caught the last tube train
Changed, and somehow caught the last again!
Hiccup
Whose holding who up
By the way.. Tottering
Giggling arm in arm gloriously tight
Kate.. and we homeward bent
Went by the pale moonlight.

Thick but not sick I'm glad to say
Tomorrow is another lovely
But unsteady day.
Kate's my daughter
Now you see
How the joke's on you
And me.
