Side By Side

You and Me

So many vehicles

So many journeys 

So many destinations

So many countries

Exploring life 

Side by Side

From teenagers to parents to retirees

Copious conversations

Decisions made

Disagreements

Abundant laughter

Grief

Rivers of tears

Music throughout the decades

Silly songs sung

Coffees aplenty

So many years 

Side by Side

So happy to hear of couples that stuck it out ... for better or worse, richer or poorer, to death do us part. Thanks for sharing this lovely poem of ageless love, my friend. Smiles and Blessings Bill

Awwn this is so soul warming to read about dear debx, to travel together from teenagers until now through various ways and share similar interests too is something beautiful to read about. I dont see this often and when i read about marriages like this, it leaves me in awe. Im happy for you and i wish you both many more coffee dates together and happiness and good health. Always a pleasure reading your sincere poems
