#88 Will You Still Love Me?
(She) 'Will you still love me,
when wrinkles frame my eyes? '
(He) 'When I look at a beautiful picture
'Tis not the frame I see.
I see only the painting and
the Artist's creativity! '
(She) 'And when my hair fades
with grey and then it's white?
In your eyes, will I still
be all right? '
(He) 'When I'm embracing you
in my loving arms true,
I don't even notice the color,
Is it dark or light? '
(She) 'My memory may fade,
I might 'forget' as it becomes dim.
My waist won't be as thin.
Will you still request a 'Love-in? '
(He) 'Have you forgotten my dear,
my memory too, will disappear.
Your waist curvaceous thin?
I only see your heart, deep within! '
(She) 'Will you still love me when I have
enlarged knuckles on my pretty hands &
my legs no longer heed commands? '
(He) 'I'll never see the knuckles deformed,
Only the deeds those hands transformed,
and warmed!
When your legs give out on you,
Mine probably will too.
I'll buy a rocking chair built for two!
(She) 'As I lose my teeth one at a time,
replacements by design.
Will you still love my smile,
and kiss me, and not revile? '
(He) 'Teeth, lovely one, are for chewing.
What does that have to do with kissing?
I can close my eyes and feel your smile.
Soft warm lips, truthful, no beguile! '
(She) 'And as the fleeting years fly by.
There will come a day, to say 'Goodbye.'
Will you still love me then, and hold
me close to your heart, my friend? '
(He) 'I promise, my love, I'll hold you near
to my heart, 'til your last breath.
I pledge to you, I'll still love you,
even, after death! '
On this your Anniversary Day.....
Love each other intensely in every way.
'Til death do you part,
Cultivate love with all your heart!
Our wedding was many years ago. The celebration
continues to this day. ~ Gene Perret
The difficulty with marriage is that we fall in love with a personality,
but must live with a character. ~Peter Devries
Infatuation is when you think he's as sexy as Robert Redford, as smart as
Henry Kissinger, as noble as Ralph Nader, as funny as Woody Allen, and as
athletic as Jimmy Conners. Love is when you realize that he's as sexy as
Woody Allen, as smart as Jimmy Connors, as funny as Ralph Nader, as athletic
as Henry Kissinger and nothing like Robert Redford - but you'll take him
anyway. ~Judith Viorst, Redbook, 1975da

A man reserves his true and deepest love not for
the species of woman in whose company he finds himself electrified and
enkindled, but for that one in whose company he may feel tenderly drowsy.
~George Jean Nathan
