“Grow old along with me!
The best is yet to be…” ~ Robert Browning (on a
sundial my Piano Man gave me for our first anniversary)
I
love you more,
we say, year after year…
tasting truth
in each other’s mouths.
another first kiss on Silver Lake Park, where we shared our
first kiss
my Piano Man and I proposed to each other under this
crabapple tree. The tag in the picture is new—I’ve no idea what it means for
the tree… But since 13 and 31 (especially
together) are
my favorite numbers, it must be a good omen for me
the painting on the background is a handfasting present from
Magic Love Crow
linking to Poets United (Poetry Pantry #491) and to the
Imaginary Garden with Real Toads (Play It Again! with ‘Old Toads’. I chose the
Sunday Mini-Challenge with Kim Nelson ~ Love after Love)
When love after love is the same love, all is right with the world.
ReplyDeleteAll those layers grow lovingly.
DeleteNice to remember that first kiss in such a beautiful way. Your poem, as your love, will live on.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mary.
DeleteI love that you celebrate your life together in this way 🖤❤🖤
ReplyDeleteMe too!
DeleteSuch a heart-warming write, Magaly!💖💖 I love that you proposed to each other under a crabapple tree 😊 soo romantic!
ReplyDeleteProposing to each just made sense. It was fun, too.
DeleteYou two are so good together!
ReplyDeleteI think so, too.
DeleteHow wonderful! How fortunate you both are to have found each other.
ReplyDeleteLucky, lucky, lucky...
Deletethe first kiss, over and over. And you proposed to each other! doubly romantic. did you ever see the movie, 50 first Dates? A sweet movie and I usually go for John Wick. Keep having those first dates and first kisses. blessings.
ReplyDeleteI love that silly movie!
DeleteI'm smiling with happiness. Many happy returns of that first kiss.
ReplyDeleteYay! for happy smiles. And thank you!
DeleteHello beautiful! The taste of love, the taste of truth ~~ might be all we need.
ReplyDeleteIt might be, indeed.
DeleteHappy Anniversary! Your poem art is beautiful and I love how you've incorporated Magic Love Crow's art!
ReplyDeleteStacy's work is so inspiring.
DeleteHappy Anniversary! Awe, such magic in your poem and those numbers~
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteAwww So sweet, you could write me one like this every day. For a while but not lately, I made it an effort to every day after a kiss to ask her if she marry me. Blushing her cute bit, then I'd ask if she would renew our vows with me. She never says yes to that, her reply is that she hadn't done anything wrong that needd fixing. Weve been married 46 years.
ReplyDelete(I don't know you well enough but I'm thinking this is a fantasy poem, not the real you and Lover. If true, Happy Anniversary!!)
..
Actually, Jim, this is the truth all the way. We are one of the quirkiest couple ever. And we honestly continue to propose marriage to each other at least thrice a week. And the kissing has never stopped...
DeleteI love your love story!
ReplyDeleteI do, too. Grins.
DeleteI love that you love that we love each other!' That your love grows entwined, unfolding, surrounding each other with understanding and acceptance and passion. It matters-! Continue!
ReplyDeleteIt matters, indeed.
DeleteLove continues to unfold and intertwine and intersect and manifest itself in our hearts, our lives.....our very souls. It enriches our bones! Causes our blood to boil....infusing us with health and more sweet passionate love. Love you two. Happy, imaginative, mysterious, rich lovely life together. Have so much more! Have laughs!!it matters!
ReplyDeleteMore shall be had.
DeleteKeep tasting all that is sweet & juicy :) Love your words emerging from the 'love heart' crows created be Stacy too... ahh love & crabapple trees xxx :)

ReplyDeleteI thought so, too.
