Us - A Valentine Poem


Together we are a mountain
Stripes of wheat
Grow at our feet
And rivers surge

Together we are a diamond knot
Dazzling in our strength

Yet tender
Wrapping family and each other in our arms
Basking in love’s sheer light
Rising in our vintage years
Together

  1. I especially like the last line, "Rising in our vintage years, together" for it echoes the beauty of a long-term relationship that keeps right on growing. A perfect Valentine's poem, well matched with the photo.

  2. Lovely, tender, and I particularly liked the line, "Together we are a diamond knot" what could be stronger than that.
