She had a few years on me
Beautiful still, as she could be
In her youth
She must have made
Heads turn
Besides her obvious loveliness
She is, of a heavenly complexion
Blue eyes, that will steal
your dreams away.

A lovely body
Still holding tight
Hands
No longer soft, as a rose petal
Knotted joints
Flesh closer to the bone
Like a prune, of pink and blue.

Eyes brighten
To the sound of familiar music
From days of old
She and friends
Take to the dance floor
Women do that, you know?

I see her
Smiling, having fun
Capturing thoughts
Of days bygone
Sparkles
I see within her eyes
Are that of a child
Enjoying the moment at hand.

Her romantic days
Were sadly left
At the the lost horizon
The music plays, her smile is fixed
Eyes not in the past
But here
At the dance floor.

Enjoying moments at hand
For only God knows
What's within
Her coming tomorrow.

It does not matter what does occur on the morrow, what matters is what happens today and what is done with it and she obviously has done quite a lot with this and everyday...Peace found, Ed & rufuz

William:

This is so wonderfully-sentimental. You have penned a very thoughtful piece that shows your romantic side. This shows that love is within us and we give to our loved ones unconditionally. Just know that you are also loved by her too.

Wonderful write indeed!

Thank you for the graceful path you wrote here for me. I know we don't know one another but every ounce of this poem is me and others' who have loved and because of their grace and constitutions...lost. Ethics mean a lot to me and seems like today they aren't beholding for many. I thank you.

Oh, my goodness. This is one of the best poems I've read! I saw my parents there, and I'm not far from it. The ending caused a stab in my heart. Very emotional and fantastic write.
