Moments of Silence The worst my love has ever shone Is when she leaves and she is gone. It’s then I feel the ghostly flair Of loneliness and of despair I seemed to know her when we met T’was like a chill when you are wet And though she had no history I knew she was the girl for me. She often climbs upon my back And pounds my head with what I lack But that is not an evil thing And come to be a loving sting. She seems to go through life in trot For she would do and I would not And though we seem at odds all day For sixty years it’s been that way. And e’er some day there come an end I would with her around the bend. |

She seems to go through life in trot For she would do and I would not And though we seem at odds all day For sixty years it’s been that way. When I read this, I cannot tell you what a warmth and smile this gave my heart...unconditional love...is what it's all about...you love her for the unique flaws that no one else has, which makes her extremely special, for you and you only. Bless you both, and also for this write. |

Sy...it's a wise man who remembers the reasons for which he said I do. Time changes us all... bless your heart for being open to the vagaries of freshness. |

Soleil Noir Meanings are full of friends, JM, 61 next month, I'll write you an Email today sometime. When she got home last night she said something about getting in on the 9th.

Seymour, what a beautiful love poem to your Isabel. This part reminds me of my Mom and Dad. They've been married all these years and still act like teen-agers in love. LOL She seems to go through life in trot For she would do and I would not And though we seem at odds all day For sixty years it’s been that way. And this part sounds like me and my Honey-Love..... I seemed to know her when we met T’was like a chill when you are wet And though she had no history I knew she was the girl for me. I'm keeping this if you don't mind. It's just beautiful. Hugs and wishes for a wonderful day  Ethel |

And though she had no history I knew she was the girl for me. Although we only have 33 years to our credit, I feel the same as you. Thanks a million, Melton |

Well I know the "evil sting" first hand, and she doesn't fool me one bit. She is the sweetest, kindest, most caring soul I have yet to come across, and I darn near cried reading this, as I guess time sees through all the barriers doesn't it m'friend. As I said before and will again, why on earth can't they get it right today? You two have something so special that is unique.  |

This is the sweetest and darlingest poem I've ever read. You are both to be congratulated that your love has lasted and grown. (And I know exactly what you mean about her going through life in a trot-that's the most lasting impression I have of her! )Nan (Pilgrim variety) |
