Secret of a Loving Couple

they knew to keep the romance alive
said “I love you” every day and many times
put their partner’s needs first
apologized if they accidentally hurt each other
this loving couple enjoyed sixty-two years together
their secret? The intentionally fell in love again every single year

My parents were married for sixty-three years before my mother passed. My dad still loved her until the day he died. My wife and I have been in love for 51-plus years now.
