As Life Grows Shorter, Love Grows Stronger
Poet: Ella Wheeler WilcoxThe days grow shorter, the nights grow longer,
The headstones thicken along the way;
And life grows sadder but love grows stronger
For those who walk with us, day by day......

The Best Is Yet To Be
Poet: Julie Hebert, ©2011The best is yet to be, our love will set us free.
So please take care of me I want to grow old together with thee.
To grow old with thee, would forever be such glee.
We'd hold hands and be, as happy as one, two, three.
So when to make us we? Is marriage someone we agree?
Cause if your answer is let's be, man and wife, whoopee!
Together is our key, to happiness on some degree.
I'm so happy to be a we, with you I will always be free.
Never Seem Old
Poet: Arlo BatesFor age is the chilling of heart;
And thine, as mine can tell,
Is as young and warm as when first we heard
The sound of our bridal bell!
I turned and kissed her ripe red lips:
"Let time do its worst on me,
If in my soul, my Love, my Faith,
I never seem old to thee!"
Getting Old
Poet: Catherine PulsiferGetting old can seem so mean
We are no longer fit and lean
Our hair has gone grey and white
And we no longer stay up late at night.
But one thing is better that's for sure
Our love and you, I adore.
So getting old is not so bad
With you at my side makes me glad.
Will You Love Me When I'm Old?
Poet: UnknownWill affection still infold me
When the day of life declines;
When old age with ruthless rigor
Plows my face in furrowed lines;
When the eye forgets its seeing,
And the hand forgets its skill,
And the very words prove rebel
To the mind's once kingly will......

Together
Poet: Catherine PulsiferI want to grow old with you each day,
Through sunshine bright and skies of gray.
With every moment, our love will grow,
A bond so strong, the world will know.
Together we'll face what life may bring,
Through every season, through everything.
Hand in hand, we'll journey far,
Guided always by love's true star.
As years unfold, our hearts will see,
The beauty in love's simplicity.
Forever yours, and always true,
I want to grow old with you.
Love Is
Poet: Catherine PulsiferLove is rainbows and sunshine
All types of weather
But it truly doesn't matter
As long as we are together.
Love is grand when we are young
And as we age, love is great
Our love just gets stronger
We have a bond that will not break.
Love is growing old with you
It is a great experience, it is like
A touch of heaven coming through
I thank God every day for you!
