Setting sun tints the sky

Dust stirs on a dusty road

Impetus bodies walk hand in hand

Frugal lives are rich with each other

Eyes show emotion

Where  amid their hearts love abides

Solitude gives them peace

For time is a gift

A stagnant they hold dear

Reviews

[Poeticpiers]

the word stagnant struck me as wrong apart from that I liked the poem

[Amy Craig Beasley]

I love this --

especially

"Frugal lives are rich with each other"

SO NICE --

kinda like chers and sonny's "I got you babe"

yes time -- a treasure - moments - beauty ~

a stagnant they hold dear - though swings this poem 'roud - screech --- maybe this moment - needs to move on -

[Death Girl]

Nice write

[kurdapiaful]

short but moving :)

[Susie Q]

This is a lovely tribute and emotional write. No better thing on earth than to spend time simply walking along in solitude, holding hands with the one you love. Short and sweet.

[Michael of Gilead]

I like the contrasts "Frugal lives are rich"

I'd change the double use of dust/dusty

Nicely done!

[Wolf's Dark Song]

What a glorious way to kill time. I can't think of a better way. A wonderful poem!

[Samuel Dickens]

Not just killing time, I'd say. More like "quality time", simple, unhurried, and real.

[Star Wolf]

What better way to spend time than with someone you hold dear and close to your heart.

[An owl on the moon]

What a beautiful glimpse of the dearest companions.. hand in hand walking through the wondrous world...
