NEVER LEFT ASUNDER TO MY LATE MOM: Did you ever notice that the letters in the word “love” are sequestered inside the word “evolve”? Because to me that is what love appropriately does It evolves It revolves It solves And after sixty-plus years together love does, in many ways, change its ways of wonderment and is often altered on a course to sheer contentment for that is the result of the continuation of a consecrated commitment an abiding faith that the other’s faith rests upon the other’s shoulder as they grow ever so much older remembering a time of working hard together to get through the hard times together that old fishing boat she hated so that became battered and eventually succumbed to the weather while all the while smiling because each year seemed a bit brighter than the last and all the joyful events that are now part of a bejeweled and fulfilling past a past reflected in each partner’s eyes which gaze upon a tribute to dedication a coupling worthy of adulation he being content to make her content proves the content of their cohabitation a union rich with rewards that come in the mail bearing pictures of their first great grandson born a baby with beauty by an angel at birth besworn……………………… so there they sit sharing a couch and swapping a calliope of memories he talks of fishing and she of a cool Autumn breeze as each agrees sixty-plus years weaves two souls together as tightly as any weaver ever wove a sweater and for some fated reason the last decade seems somehow, in retrospect, better well……. not so much better as just plain more comfortable no surprises, no red flags, and no warnings to heed just a mutual and spiritual type of need the need to talk away a partners tears while knowing that his partner truly hears and dries her eyes compliantly to face yet another hardship defiantly ever eager with a gentle finger to wipe away the wet that it might no longer linger because these are two who vowed with strength that forever, to them, actually meant forever through the trials…….. through the riches ……….and through the smiles but most notably through all the determination together to damn away their fears Yes……….it seems to me that love evolves ever so softly after sixty-plus years © 2012…copyright PHREEPOETREE..~free cee!~
