Poem that looks back on youth

walkabout 

On another  walkabout with her , we stopped  and talked 

about this and that ,she had a walkabout umbrella , she put it down 

and leaned back  against  a  dampening  tree  unfolding  of  a lovely
knee. she stood . 

Up above  a rainbow to the sky  proposed and I looked at  her a while,
then   . 

looked some more , until a willing  Sun found a way  back from a
walkabout . 

we walked about all day ,doing this and that . 

and when the night time came  the moon,   appeared,   far off,  high  ,
then  quickly 

fell ,   hanging  lantern  bright,    behind  a  tree ,  green  leaves 

glistening there , then she said , she  had to go, 

she disappeared  from view,  over  there 

her and silent  moon , gone walkabout  together
