More Beautiful

We met Fell in love Got married The time passed Three decades already Had children They grew up They left Now we are alone Much older, much wiser The bodily beauty vanished Hair got gray, then turned white Wrinkles appeared Some pounds were added But When I look at you, my love, And think of what we have been through: The joys The pains, The agonies, The comforts My heart finds you more beautiful than Ever before For You were my companion My comrade My friend My allie My wife You never left my side, no matter what You shared everything with me, good or bad You were the reason that my life’s trip was Complete You were the reason that all my dreams came True You the reason that my heart was filled with Happiness You the reason that my soul’s eyes have seen Beauty, The real beauty of life: YOU! © Demetrios Trifiatis 21 SEPTEMBER 2014

Thank you so much Dr. Upma! To say "I Love You, you are beautiful" to someone who is young and have just met is easy. To say it after thirty years when old is the real love!

The whole poem was a prelude to this line, my friend Jim! Thank you for thinking I succeeded in that. What matters though is the fact that the poem is true! Thank you again for your kind visit and comment!
