Two hands Two hearts Two bands of gold Tightly clasped Filled with desire Symbol of promises still untold Just like their love Two hands Two hearts Two bands of gold Gnarled and wrinkled Sometimes broken Worn smooth and old Just like their love Cheryl McClellan 1/17/02 |

Dear Cheryl, Now look what you did. I got all weepy and everything. Gorgeous write, so short and great. A lifetime in 25 words or less... Nan |

Midnitesun, Yes, some of us are lucky enough to find that forever partner. Thank goodness. Nan, I'm proud as a peacock that I wrote something stirring enough to cause tears. Yeah. Cheryl |

Hey Cheryl.....I thought you couldn't write love poems.....Well now, I've seen at least two excellent ones you've written, so you are probably mistaken about that notion. I really loved this one. It covered so much time with so few words, so beautifully written.  copyright2002 Lyra Nesius |

Cheryl, Powerfully simple. How two things that don't touch can be so intertwined. Very good. Roger [This message has been edited by True Reflections (01-18-2002 02:39 PM).] |

Like the ring in this poem, these lovers love have no begining and no end. I hope when I'm old and wrinkly I have the hand i love wrapped in mine too Great write!-R. "So stop and love and dance and live and laugh until you cry" Edwin McCain |

Lyra, I guess I'm catching on. This one thought of two hand and two bands just wouldn't let go until I wrote something. Thanks. Cheryl |

Roger, that is the incredible part. Just like two vines that grow along a fence and end up twisted together. Honeysuckle and wild roses. Oh man, would that make a great poem. Thanks, Cheryl |

Rebekkah, isn't that a sweet feeling. Knowing you will grow old with the one who held your hand as a young bride. I was 18 so I have a few more years. Just think when I'm 68 I'll be celebrating my 50th. Cheryl |

Harry, Thanks so much. That was my purpose when starting. Just two verses to show a lifetime. I'm glad you liked it. Cheryl |
