Their eyes met
For a moment 
to get glimpse
of another soul -
both were 
a part filled bowl
that clanged 
to cheer and mate
to quench
of the other
with fervour 
they took fill 
Without 
a pause 
to exchange
serve the other
.......
They parted
Departed to go separate
on paths much trod
For prepared tho'
they were 
to receive 
not give -
each chose to suckle 
not succour
to become together 
one complete whole.
