Comment from Dean Kuch
There are many beautiful images on the net that epitomize the kind of love you've written of here, Dip. You simply must use your imagination to make them pop and bring them to life through the narrative in your poem.
As you can see, some are animated while others are actual photographs.
But you are free to pick and chose whatever medium you like that you feel gets the message across the best.
Lovely poem, as usual.
One of your best...

Comment from Thal1959
Howdy, D. Decided to stop by tonight. This may sound terribly snobbish of me, but I am finding it difficult to read some of the other writer's works. If the meter is uneven, or the wording is too simplistic - or forced to make the syllable count even - the work reads clumsily and it bothers me. It makes me fear I will pick up those bad habits as I write. To be honest, I really think I am able to take my own work up another level. But in order to do this, I feel I need to focus on the works of the old masters.
I just read a handful of poems and they sounded herky-jerky. The meter is uneven and the wording is bland. I prefer rhyming poetry to free verse, but I have read two really good free verses tonight. Since I know the meter and rhyme scheme is unregulated, it didn't bother me - so that left the wording which was far better than the rhyming poems. Your poem here holds its rhythm well and the wording is well chosen so that the reading of the verses are smooth and pleasant. It sounds far more natural than the other poems I read tonight. Good job, D.

Comment from Pantygynt
The sentiments expressed in the photo and enlarged with greater detail in the poem just have to be the right ones. It's a pity in a way that I didn't meet up with you earlier, like before I threw away what was broke.

You can always repair what is broken
You can always heal a broken heart
You can always take back words spoken
You can always take it back to the start
For that's what life is all about
Forgive but never forget
I want to leave you with no doubt
not forgiving's my biggest regret
Maybe we can do it all again
Like it used to be
Just take away all the pain
That's still left in me
Comment from bichonfrisegirl
Hi dip. Nothing sweeter than seeing an old couple who still love each other dearly. Even if they are getting a bit senile, they have so many memories of fun and youthful times spent together. They've grown old together.
This is a lovely, tender write. Excellent rhyme and smooth flow. Perfect pairing of picture and poem too. Luv it! ~~ Connie

Comment from country ranch writer
Aging is a problem for some we become weak and unable to dothethings we used to do. But we stand fast I our belief as long as we have each other we can weather the storms that come our way lovers ever ending and the for ever kind.

I thought I'd seen that image before :)
Good poem, rhymes are solid. Captures the maturing of true love quite well. Everyone who has found true love should be grateful. This poem makes it clear you are.
