Test of Love

When bodies cease To emit jasmine’s fragrance When lips aren’t rosebuds Old age, season to test The love of those you loved

Thanks for your thought provoking comments filled with vision and wisdom. No doubt old age divulges the true meaning of love in all its depth and quality. It is indeed a new dawn

Thanks for your compliments. Old age is the time to judge whether your near and dear ones really loved you. If you are the lucky one they do.
