Old Is Gold and Precious, a Poem About Love That Lasts a Lifetime
A Heartfelt Poem To Celebrate Selfless Love And Togetherness!
If it comes from Heart, it touches Hearts!
As We Age, Love Also Grows, And Grows Stronger!
Your first love,
Your first friendship,
Your first joke,
Your first toy—
—are but simple joys,
that have stayed years after,
those moments are gone.
They remain,
to comfort long after,
the kids of our kids,
are born.
Love grows with time!
Still the memories are fresh,
When we met first,
How little did I know then,
It would be difficult,
To live without you,
Even for a moment.
Remember the day,
When we promised each other,
That we can't fix every problem,
But we will face them together.
Old Is Gold And Lovelier!
Growing old together has been fun,
Passing all the trials and tribulations,
Still holding each others hands.
Perhaps we love each other more,
Much more than yesterday,
But perhaps less than tomorrow!

I completely agree with you Radhika! It is important to express love sometimes by words or actions , by caring --It works as a reassurance that is very much required by both the partners.
Thanks for reading and sharing your thoughts! Much appreciated!
True love remains forever as said and seen over the lifetime...Some folks forget about words that can comfort their love. They believe that materials only are the means to show their love. Such people don't have any sense of how to love and show their affection.

Beautiful poem. Yes. I do believe love grows stronger with time. This year I will have been married to my husband for 30 years and I have to say the love I have for him is stronger today than yesterday. I love the song, "Endless Love." We played the Lionel Richie version at our wedding, but I enjoy this instrumental version much more.

I must now commend you Chitrangada. You just left a very lovely message on my poem, "Unspoken Vows," and you said it wasn't easy to surrender and have total submission in love; you gave me praise for being able to do that. Then I come to your page, and find that you do the same thing. You surrender to your feelings, and you talk and write about them, and it's lovely. I loved your words here. Thank you for sharing!

This was a true treasure to find chitrangadaSharan; How wonderful it must feel to find your soulmate- your rib- who makes you feel so complete. Its truly rare and should be valued above anything else. I have heard stories of older people who have been married for 30-40 years and I think "how safe that must feel, to know you have someone who will stand by you through thick and thin. voted up and beautiful.

Beautiful poem Chitrangada, to have such a love last for such a long time is awesome! wonderful!
This is so meaningful - when love has lasted and there is still respect and joy - old is gold alright. Thank you, lovely poem.

Beautiful poetry. A touch of romance, perhaps?

Well, I'm old, so I must be golden, right? :) Beautiful work my friend.
