Connection

We have an 18 crt. gold connection
You are the diode to my capacitor.
All that flows through me is collected,
in you. My love, you are all I adore.

We, together, generate a powerhouse
Like a beacon, we light up the skies
Our relationship, one with the other
Out spins twenty wind turbines combined.

We are throwbacks, designed pre-WWW.
Quirky, the Mary Quant mini of our time.
Who knows how we remained mainstream,
still, we gleam and glisten, a fantasy sublime .
