When We Are Old

No way you and I will arrive there To get older and older Nobody gets younger But while we are getting near Must prepare and do better Healthier, physical, mental, emotional, …ual Think also manual Even the heart It is the eventual Everything would be monumental Let us remember our ages go older But in our minds let’s bear Age does not matter, our love Will go farther, linger, tender and wilder!

Yes, age doesn't matter when it comes to truly loving somebody! and I think that is the beauty of it! I like what you say here touching on the aspects (-uals?) of love -- enjoyed this one Dalila :) Have a great weekend! hugs to you!

oh, it's so hard, Dalila, to feel healthier as one gets older. I do love the fact that love can go farther!! Nice thoughts and so nice to see you tonight. Luv, Andrea
