When a couple has been together for a lifetime, they don't always have to say, "I love you," in spoken words.

I HAVE ALWAYS HAD AN HEAVENLY ENVY OF THIS KIND OF ENDURING, HUMAN LOVE. BUT THOUGH I'VE ALWAYS ADMIRED IT AND WANTED IT, IT WAS NOT MY DESTINY TO KNOW SUCH. I CAN ONLY THANK GOD THAT HE...KNOWING MY YEN FOR IT WOULD NOT BE ATTAINED, LED ME IN A PATH WHERE I MET HIM AND HE FILLED THE ACHE OF MY UNFULFILLED DESIRE ON THIS EARTH AND ETERNITY. THIS IS A KEEPER, DAVID. THANKS FOR SHARING. LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...HIS+INSPIRATIONS.

So poignant! And so true. I hear, "I love you," almost every day, so I'm so glad I'm not at that point yet. ;-)

There is close communion when they know each other so long. Holding one another tenderly says volumes, and fuels them with warmth for the new day. You have told about it so well! Aware that their time together may be short, they treasure each other and refrain from wasting their remaining days as a couple.

This poem is so tender and utterly beautiful David...
Like Jerry, felt I was standing alongside this older loving couple
You have captured something so skilfully that it defies description...
Certainly one of your best!
My best wishes always...

Breathtakingly beautiful, David. The picture is drawn with words so vividly, I felt I was standing in the room with them.
