Notes About The Poem

Image result for pictures of older couples in loveThis is about what we would hope our life would be. 

Transform

A love that has weathered wild storms And youth's fierce passion contained Tender, deeper than lust ingrained An opened sonnet of life transform A tapestry still on an open loom Unfinished here upon this earth Those golden years, a story of mirth Their roots deep, fragrant flowers bloom Two hearts somehow in rapport Good character, a crown they share With every gesture and each care Maybe their overflow will pour A bond that's never tired nor tire Their union, an inspiration's theme A love that's found in every dream So let us celebrate this pair

How beautiful is this? You and your muse, along with your ink, did poetry proud with this heart touching, and melting, poem. I haven't read many love poems from that age's point of view and it is uplifting to do so, touches me tender. Love it. Poetry hugs ... CayCay

Oh how beautiful love is, isn't it! Growing old together and sharing that sacred bond of love. But it's so rare, truly lucky are the ones who get to experience that kind of pure love. Your poem touched my heart deeply.

Great to see two people who love each other in their old age. Maybe that is why I sometimes lose my muse.

Victor, I think our muse comes from deep within when all is working well in our lives. I say it is from a Spirit. Thanks for the visit. Sara K

S. Zaynab, I appreciate the visit and kind review. I really think the rhyming of this one is what is called internal rhyming pattern, but not sure. I just started off like that and went for it. Sara K

A love that has weathered all storms is genuine love. There is beauty and contentment in such blissful pairing. All married couples should strive to foster such a love. Beautiful rhyming poem.

Valsa, I agree. We can't achieve that perfect love until we go into our heavenly bodies which will be like His. I appreciate the nice review and encouragement. Sara K
