That's a wonderful picture and poem. When I was growing up, I was always the observer, trying to understand what was going on. Writing became my safe place.
Thanks for sharing this poem.

Patty,
This is a lovely testament to your husband and a well crafted lanturne poem.
You have followed the syllabic requirement for each line while making a beautiful statement of love. I enjoyed it very much and wish you good luck in the contest.

Best wishes,
Lena

Your husband is quite handsome and I liked the way your poem focused on his "Bright blue eyes" and their making you feel "safe". Best wishes in the Lanturne Poetry contest- Joan

Lovely tribute to your hubby, Patty! I'm glad you are that person you feel so safe with! It's not everyone's story so we need to give God thanks daily for our great husbands!

Just 20 years younger, Patty. He couldn't have changed that much, could he?
On second thought, and after looking in the mirror, forget I even said that.
A lovely Lanturne tribute to your beloved husband. May your love light always shine bright...

Um...thirty years. Yes, the mirror is SO mean these days.

I'm sure you look fine. Thank you for the well wishes. The weekend is coming!

I never majored in math, that's why I write, LOL.

I thought you were just trying to make us all younger

reply by Dean Kuch on 28-Jul-2017

Yeah, that's it; that's exactly what I was doing! Ahem...

This is very well written Lanturne Poetry you have penned for the contest. You used very good wording and very good imagery. Nice eyes I can see. I thought it might be your son or husband! Best wishes in the contest! love, Teri

Hi Teri; thank you so much for the lovely review -- it is indeed my hubby. In this picture, he is even younger than our son is now!

Ah, yes. Young love was so intense and so filled with passion. Older love is simply mellow and dear to the heart. I'd rather cuddle with my hubby on the couch than be anywhere else.

This is very romantic, Patty. I'm sure your husband loves it. I understand the feeling you express, my husband also makes me feel safe and I think that's really important.
Thanks for sharing and good luck in the contest.
