DREAM HERO

DREAM HERO

1 min
217

Raven black hair thick as duvet,

walrus moustache, long sideburns,

long limbed, broad shoulders, all of six feet,

Broad palms hands strong as steel

fell in love head over heels.


Coal black eyes, with brown specks,

bore into mine, raised hormone levels,

forty four inches big wide chest,

white linen shirt, brown pants pressed.

Perfect picture of hero as child had dreamt.


Never knew, nor bothered, what future held,

tied the knot took the seven steps,

to love and cherish each other till death,

through sickness and good health,

and through life's innumerable tests


Passed all; some tough, some a cake walk,

fell, rose, shaky, steadied ourselves,

bond of marriage increasingly strengthened.

Four decades plus elapsed, sense of calm now prevails

Moral...

Don't throw in the towel at the slightest pretext
