Golden

They walked together
hand-in-hand
down a golden path
through trials and tribulations,
through hopes and dreams, 
joy and fear;
with mutual sacrifice 
and collective determination.
With passion, purpose
and enduring love
they remained united 
for half a century
in a beautiful relationship
that made them one.

The title caught my eye...for obvious reasons, perhaps...but the words touched my heart and gave me hope! Thank you, Ed! Blessings, Donna Golden
