Love For the Ages

Wrinkled, old, and fat -- she's very.
Ashtray eyes and skin is hairy,
but watches over her gray lover.

While her lover lying, dying,
smiling at her begged: "No crying,
for the decades fast flew while loving you.”

“No life could have been better spent,
than with you in this firmament.
No time for sorrow, I’m gone tomorrow.”
