This 5-7-5 poem takes the vast topic of love and hopes to say something striking about it within a syllable counting form. That's a very big challenge on a very much attempted subject, and I don't think this poem says anything new or striking about mature love. I like better this of mine: She knew him before/ that wrinkle here, that mole there/ failed to shroud his eyes
But - chaque un a son gout.

    From my perspective after fifty years of marriage, I have seen and lived the imperfections of the subject. However the woman in me needs the part that I am writing about as it may be rare but without those tender moments I doubt I would have made it. So this was special to me. Thanks for your comments.

I agree with your words, with a few bumps along the way l might add. Sadly, this is not how relationships go these days, they seem to be throw away. Thanks for sharing your words of wisdom and best of luck in the contest. :)

Your words speak volumes in your 5-7-5 form. It is so true, mature love takes work as seen in "this love is not found, it's built." Excellent theme for a poem and best wishes for this contest.

Best wishes for your writing prompt. True love is just like building a new house, brick by brick. It will stand the test of time, built with love just like you two building love together. K xx

I absolutely love to see old couples who look like they still have fun with each other, and the love light still shines in their eyes. I saw an Hispanic older couple in a restaurant last night, smiling and laughing together and they made me smile. So does your poem, which is true, and the picture warms the heart! Good luck in the contest.

Your poem follows all 5-7-5 rules and your presentation is beautiful.

    Hi Katie, this was a little one I have been thinking about doing for a long time, but because I usually don't do these short ones, I finally decided it was time. So I thank you so much for the lovely comments for the poem.
