What is love? Love is soft and silly When the time is just not right Love can not see the clock It doesn't know what numbers look like Love is holding hands after fifty years And after all this time its knowing he still cares Its the way he looks at you, like you were twenty two Even on your worse hair day's only beauty can he see Lets not go into the fact his eyesight's history Its best I think when shooting the moon, no dimples can he see Only youthful feelings of passion for little old me Its running out of numbers to count your blessings on Designing all those dreams and making all those plans Now sitting back enjoying them, together hand in hand Even with his streaks of white that once were dark as night You hardly ever notice that his hair has has gone from sight As the glass sits upon the night sand that holds his pearly teeth He never fails to pucker up, the sights beyond belief Its the friendship that you started when you were only kids Remembering his best line and the silly things you did Its looking at the products that your love did copulate And the little products they have made that have made your life so great Its sorting out the fusses and who came out on top Rekindling up the argument and laughing till you drop Its looking where you stated and how it came to be But its knowing that where you are, its always you and me Its as long as we live no matter where we roam With Love in our heart, we are never alone tori 99 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ If with pen in hand I've made you think I've not wasted one drop of ink vlh.

Wow ... fifty years with one person seems like such a thing of the past these day's I agree, I only hope I can make it to fifty years with one person still feeling as much love...enjoying as much laughter.. working on twenty :-) and counting....!! |

I met my husband over twenty years ago.And I can see how we are getting older together. And it makes me sad to think about the days past and the days to come.Very nice poem. |
