So Special

Remember how you felt the very first time your eyes met, then your heart leaped into your throat Remember how the bottoms of your feet tingled with glee and as the plot thickened, your breath quickened Remember how you struggled for what to say fearful this perfect person might just get away So special now that he's courting you ~ 'cos he's eighty-one and you're eighty-two This is about a couple I've been observing for a month or so now. (Parents of two friends of mine. It's SO cute!)

delightful, Gershon. You certainly captured the couple's cuteness. Your poetry lifted my spirits. Love is powerful (and cute) at any age. Have a pleasant Sunday, Sara

This makes me think of my grandpa, after my grandma died, he was alone for about a decade, then when he was about 85, he had a 'ladyfriend' - we all thought it was adorable!
