For me true love is forty eight years later, despite gray hair, missing teeth, pot bellies and occasional bouts of grumpiness, I still love her and she she is willing to put up with the petty annoyances that all couples suffer through. We are still together and are convinces that death and only death will separate us.

Thanks for the review. I couldn't quite figure out if you were describing your marriage or mine.

I believe that makes us two very lucky people, and oh yeah our spouses as well. :))
Comment from Rosemary Everson1
Yep; it is a dream and it is never what it should be. We want to be treated with kindness, respect and get some credit for the things we do for each other. We don't have to brag, but a look in the eye and a thank you would help.

Comment from Pearl Edwards
I find this a bit of a sad short poem, maybe coming from experience. The early romance may slow down but true love, till death do we part, can last. Good luck in the contest. Cheers

Thanks, Pearl. It is a bit sad, so keep dreaming.
Comment from Janice Canerdy
Your poem succinctly conveys a realistic message about love. People who expect to maintain the teenage starry-eyed sigh and fluttering heart as years pass aren't being realistic.

Excellent entry for the Short Poem writing prompt contest. You have a meaningful message in a few words, that is harder than most people think. I like the presentation too. Good luck in the contest.

Thanks, Gypsy, the master of the short poem.
Comment from MissMerri
You have said a lot in your few words, and now I can only say a little in my few lines, so I'll just say I like this short poem very much because it has a lilting music to it and perfect rhymes and a rather realistic philosophy all wrapped into one. True love must be based on more than fluffy dreams, it is true, but it can be wonderful, nevertheless. Thanks for posting this and please win the contest. That would be fun. MM

I think this a good entry for this contest, good luck. I think some people will completely disagree with you message. Other will absolutely agree. But the point of the contest is to write a short poem (14 words in this case) and make a point maybe even a little controversy is okay. That is exactly what you did. Good job.

Comment from DeboraDyess
Lol. Yes, you do. But the reality isn't so bad when it's with the right person. There are no knights in shining armor, no fair maidens. But the right guy or girl to balance your life isn't far away from that. :)
Loved the poem!
Blessings,
Deb
