Rock n’ roll dreams and promises
Jumbled kaleidoscope views
Giggles on the grass with girlfriends
…and then there was you
 
Tooth fairy banquets, powdered lullabies
Lemonade and laughter, Santa rendezvous!
Too soon, young men bold and beautiful
…and still there was you
 
Warmth, wisdom, sharing the old
Look forward together to the new
Through drifts of moonlight, velvet shadows
…and constant bright lights!
it has always been, will always be                
you!

I think true love is one that survives the ages and ravages of time and events. Forty years together soon!

I do believe that is all complimentary? If not I'll pretend that it is - must be with the little kiss at the end.

I wish I had a hubby like this.....
I liked it Anna...
honest feelings....At the end of the day,emotions win and not words....or rhymes....emotions and truth.....win always..u were right ....

I hope so too Matthew and I am sure it will happen in time. I think the thing is we both stuck at it even though there were tough times in our lives and our relationship, but love conquered all! (as it should)

Lolz Yeah It Was Complimentary

Yes, from someone who is a bit shy with compliments to the face (my hubby is likewise) but many things are understood and unspoken

The emotion in this poem is soft to the eyes, the narrative is a fine melody. Love the effort and flow of this poem. Write on.

Your response is quite beautiful too - thank you.

:) i really like this one im a sucker for gushy love stuff :) however in your short sweet poem you have managed to tell a tale of young love groing into an older more mature love and one that is sure to stand the test of time :) you and your husband are both lucky to have each other im so happy to see that you nor your husband neither one takes the love the other gives for granted as too many people these days seem to find love expendible

deannajoy I'm glad you enjoyed this poem. Love can change and move to different things yet still remain constant.

Wow, that was good. :)

IxLastBreath I love that you have read and commented on an "older" poem. I think booksie people tend to forget to do that a lot and can thereby miss some good reads.
THANK YOU!

Hello Anna, I loved it! Very well said and written as well. From the beginning 'til the end, it made me think of a lifetime of love with that "Special One".

I share most of the poems I read with my fiancee and I know that she will love this one as well. I really liked the last line, "It has always been, will always be you". Thanks for the smile and the warm heart-felt feeling inside!

Love that you can relate to this - good to know other people have the same love and appreciation (sometimes unspoken) of their partners as I have.
PS. My in-laws celebrate 65 years of marriage today! How many of us will see a union like that?

Hello Again Anna, You and your husband are really lucky to have each other! I too, am glad and very happy to know that there are others that believe in a monogamous relationship.

Wow! Congratulations to your in-laws! 65 years is a long time and a lifetime achievement.

Riobald good to hear from you again. One has to work at a relationship in any case, even a good one - 65 years is testemant to all of that and more.
