I have loved you long With a love that is strong Like a river flows deep and wide Or the rise and fall of the tide Now that I am old Has your love grown cold You were once in love A gift to me from above Will love's desire rekindle In the latter years that dwindle Will the snow on the mountain Fizzle in warm hearth's fountain Rhythm of Once In Every Life by Ronnie Milsap

Russell, Thanks for the delightful review of my work..How are you doing..Have you recuperated from your fall?? Well, this one is not my usual poulter's measure but I tried to time it to match the time of the song..Have a great day..Sara

Micheal, Quality of love is the most important with some people getting a long time together with good quality and some getting a long time together with poor quality..For most couples there are good times and bad times but if one works through the bad times then the good times are very special.Thanks for the visit to my page..I appreciate the time spent here..Sara

A love song well depicted -- apt questions at the end!

SO, Just a made up one..I see many couples sitting in restaurants non-communicating...Sad to see but sometimes they are just comfortable with each other and sometimes it is they are not interested in each other anymore..Thanks for dropping by..Sara
