Once they were passionate lovers
With the world at their feet.
They dreamed it would last forever,
Life and love were sweet.

But with time the flame of love burned low,
A lingering spark they came to know,
That on occasion would burn higher
But never with that first Love's fire.

Now, the lovers have grown old
And the burning flame of desire is cold
But not without the brilliant glow
That only seasoned love may know.

The old man's steps are slow but steady
His trembling hands are ever ready
To tend his lady while he may
Before she quietly slips away.

They share so many entwined emotions,
Memories, loyalty and devotion.
They've journeyed far since that first kiss.
To learn what true love really is.

True love ... yes. Emotions may be different, but the connection becomes so deep and always more precious while the years go by.

And besides that single relationship ... LOVE IS!

A very beautiful tribute to true love!

Love,

How wonderfully put, if only we could see it for what it is

Thank you Late, I wrote this poem about a rather famous painting of an old man pushing his wife in a wheelchair.

Ida, that is so serenely,
and touchingly beautiful.

May we all experience such seasoned love.

To
love, loving,
and
being loved in return,

Wonderful...although I don't believe that desire gets cold as much as new desires grow warmer...James
