Touching
You kiss the salt
From my brow
Things will be okay
The aches and pains
Sap our strength
But doesn't shake our trust
In the length of the land
In the breadth of our love
We heal the stain
On the lands
Calling no fault
But that of time

Time is indeed the real enemy. We all need that little bit more.
In the length of the land
In the breadth of our love
That is a great pairing of ideas.
Yes--agree with Kerry's comment--those are beautiful lines, and the whole poem bespeaks a kind of strength in struggle, thanks. k.
Excellent use of the words. Your aches and pains are made bearable because someone loves you...beautiful poem !
Age presses upon all of us and yet sometimes we can make our foundations unbreakable...
We heal the stain
On the lands
Calling no fault
But that of time
When two people are determined.. nothing can stop them from succeeding not even time! :D Beautifully executed :D

Kerry has said it all...
Kerry pinpointed those exact two lines that are the pillar of this poem
I love hte love eternal in this. The acceptance of all things that comes with that enduring love across time. The largest blemish is accepted as yet another texture to be appreciated.
Lovely, You are so creative!
Well done!

That'll be a sweet memory from my own life forever.
Bravo, you're really good at this, and I may be late to the party, but I always play catch up and am happy I did! Blogging takes the ho-hum out of especially rainy days.
Oh, this is lovely. It has a quality to it that transcends the confines of time.
