In honour of Catherine

This grin sits comfortably
at the end of this day
a good day
a good way
to begin

And was it a test
for you or for me?
and did I pass?

"Do you want to take my hand?"

I did feel something
peculiar and fine
as yours slipped
into mine

Maneuvering betwix'd and between
all her treasure
and the press of the crowd

And I hope we can
find our treasure
as easily
as you obliged
when I offered up my hand
