Love, in my opinion, is forever (or should me!) so whether it's puppy love when we're young or just holding hands as we age, love is still there in many ways...and we should enjoy every moment of it gray hair or not...nice Dara!
Warmly, B

This one is so well expressed. The first and last stanza just completes the write. Love is an eternal feeling, I hope it doesn't fade with time and we live longer and longer to cherish it and be blessed. Thanks Dara for sharing!

Love this. Hopefully will be me and the good lady wife, 32 years married and counting(that's if she doesn't batter me to death for snoring)
Enjoyed your words Dara

Apparently all your good traits out weigh the snoring. :-D From what I can tell you’re a keeper! I am so happy you enjoyed my little diddy. Now that I am well over the halfway mark myself, I can’t help but ponder. Hope you are doing well!
Remember when we used to tell our age with fractions? Lol, those were the days. We just need to take one day at a time, and take good care of each other. I believe friendships are most important, too. Look how far we have come, Dara!

I treasure your friendship more than you know. We have not met in person but I believe in many ways we are kindred spirits. Thank you for stopping by. I hope life is treating you well. You deserve that and so much more!

Many years from now
Will you still be sending me a Valentine
Birthday greetings bottle of wine"
I think it must be a blessing and privilige to grow old, but it's not always easy. I love your take on it.

Thank you Sam. Your reviews always mean so much to me.
Beauty is how we express our existence. Some people look like s**t despite being gorgeous.
You are very beautiful Dara, I do not need to know what you look like.

It does reinforce the belief that true beauty lies within. While we might fight the effect that aging has on our bodies, it’s more important to keep holding on to those thoughts and feelings that feed our spirit. Thank you so very much for this wonderful response to my poem.
