Still Beautiful
by Mike Gallimore (Age: 58)
copyright 02-18-2008


Age Rating: 16 to 127

 
Lay down with me in this small house
and let my arms surround you;
this is all I have to give,
and all that I can do.
I can’t unwind the years gone by
or turn stone into wood;
I can’t undo a single day,
and would not if I could.
Our future’s still before us dear,
and not in youthful dreams;
for all your fond remembrances,
the past’s not what it seems.
The lines of age that mark you now
are not a boundary;
and I can tell you this in truth,
you are still beautiful to me.

Man, there's a lot of great writers in this place. So good, that was really good. Very sweet and honest. I like it a lot, this type of poem should be like a 'hallmark' moment. Yeah, you should totally do that.

Thank-you very much for the great read.

This flows so smoothly, and captures the reader so quickly with its quiet intensity, that one doesn't have any time to look for flaws--and at the end, which comes much too quickly, doesn't want to go back and do a critical read. Only an appreciative one. ^^

And would not if I could. I love this line.
Beautiful conversation this inspires, as well.
Many, seeing their own reflection in this poem upon hearing your lingering words. Add me to the collection of those that appreciate this style in which you relay the message of love, never ending.

Lovely thanks,
Susan

This is such a lovely tribute to life enriched by enduring love. It is similar to my poem "Tomorrow" but yours is more optimistic; looking forward to days to come rather than yearning for days gone by. (which I really don't do). I agree that the past is often not as wonderful as we idealize it to be. Very nice....June
