Tim Smith Poet Couplet

Grow Old With Me

Breathless beauty shine bright tonight

 my loving arms will hold you tight

no wind, no storm, no evil tide

will whisk you away from my side

I'll fly you to a land where eagles soar 

where mountains climb from the shore

guide you to a meadow where nature plays

where geysers spout most every day

show you a place where the buffalo roam

where a simple man can make a home

 we'll sail the sea under star filled skies 

 gazing deeply into those caramelized eyes

we'll have no worries, we'll be carefree

so take my hand and grow old with me

Most people don't grow old together anymore. I'm happy to say I married my high school sweetheart, so I relate to your poetry...always touching...hugs, Rhonda
