Long Live Love

A toss of the head
A flick of her hair
The wave of her hand
As her beauty did flare
 
Her bountiful step
The spring in her stride
Her laugh as we waked 
Hand in hand through the tide
 
Her mouth with its smile
As we wrote in the sand
Her cries of frustration
As sea coated the land
 
Those little I love yous
Meant so much back then
That on annual vacations
We repeat them again
 
For least we forget 
In the daily ado
Our marital vows
Mean forever I do

Thankyou for your kindness Andrea. Yes, this as been posted some time, and a reason I don't pst so many here any more as it sadly went so quiet after all the net issues the site has had previously. If things pick up I'll be around more as I appreciate sharing and learning further... Hope all is well with you - good to hear!
