You are my anchor



You are my anchor

And I the beam in your eyes

Close even though apart

 

We’re links that connect

Life’s never ending current

Fertile in our love

 

Our hearts beat as one

Layers of a joyful life

Poetic phrasing

 

We range far and wide

Even shifting sands see us

And yield to our strength

  1. To have found that anchor and to be that special someone's beam in their eyes, no matter close or apart, is truly a wonderful connection to have found!

  2. Makes a happy duo!! May they ever be joyful and grow in strength!!

    There is a lot of togetherness and confidence in the poem unlike longing and yearning even though apart!!!!

  6. Yup, and there it is! Well done Old. I was just complaining that I couldn't make anything romantic out of the words even with heart and close... Good thing I tend not to read until after I've written the whirl. :) Really lovely; well done you.

  19. I have noticed that when older couples walk hand in hand in the park - respect is given.

    Thanks for your visit.
    We will have to see if Porter gets home next week or later...
