Sixty years is quite a lengthy stroll In gardens both exotic and familiar. Xylophones run faintly with the wind, Tinkling across from far Sicilia, Yearning for some long-accomplished goal. Years like leaves whisper in the wind, Each both intimate and unfamiliar, As hand-in-hand in shade we peaceful stroll, Remembering the heat of far Sicilia Sighing 'cross some long-forgotten goal.
