Aw, this is so sweet. Your thought that youth's beauty is fleeting, but love has stood the test of time. Excellent analogy in your second stanza that love is not a frothy drink. As you go on to state, love withstands hardships. Another excellent simile with love being like a fortress built on rock. Excellent rhyme and flow, with a beautiful note to your wife. Certainly six star worthy. judi

As always, a poem with excellent rhyme and meter, this time dedicated to your wife as a virtual Valentines Day card.

(I particularly like the last two stanzas.)

Nice work, Roy.

Hello!
What a lovely and heartfelt tribute to your wife. My husband and I have been married nearly 39 years, so I truly appreciate the sentiments found within your verse. I especially love this stanza:
"The crocus blooms in winter's gloom,
thus love withstands the face of doom.
When souls agree, entwined, become --
two hearts that beat in time as one."

Best wishes,
diane

Good rhyming in an aabb rhyme scheme/format, Roy.
Each of your five rhymed quatrains features good some excellent phraseology, good end rhyme, and the overall message conveyed is one of love, trust, compromise, and understanding.
It's a lovey, well penned ode to your dear wife.
