Lost my loved one

Some years back.

Too old for a new one,

I'm off the beaten track.

 

Still there is this yearning

To have a love in my life.

Just to be close too,

Would be a delight.

 

Still I'm looking,

But the ones I like

Are way too young for me,

And don't give me a nod.

 

If its to be one day,

I won't fight it off.

Cause a woman delights a man,

And brings not wo to that man.

Very wise words that your darling Florence would endorse, I'm sure. Really like the sense of self-knowledge and security in the fundaments of real love as well as the on-going desire for companionship this speaks of. We're never to old to engage in human warmth and comfort. Enjoy it always, George. xx

Never stop loving, always be young at heart! That's the way to be.

Funny how that works, George...it is when you are not looking that the special someone comes along. My problem was the opposite where it was the young ones that would flirt with me and I had to shake my head as they had not a lot in common with someone of my age. But of course, love has no age. Where I am at, I can honestly say I am very happy and it helps that I learned a lot along the way. I honestly wish I had paid more attention then but at least better late than never after so many years and she and I, find each other. Great write poet.

"If you can't be the one you love, love the one you're with." You're never too old to find companionship. And the Internet, where you are already, is a good place to start.

Last October I had the good pleasure of attending the wedding of a friend of mine who had had two long-lasting marriages and children with the first, but found herself alone and lonely. In her 80s but still very vibrant, she married a fellow octogenarian and I think they will live happily ever after.

Keep looking…

I understand you perfectly, George. To be alone is a lonely thing.
