You've summed up your deep feelings in this six word poem. Well done. I don't usually review short poems because I can't fulfill the required character count, but I love your notes, especially the last sentence. Lol

    Dear Judy, thank you for your excellent review, the five stars and your kind remarks. I know what you mean, about filling up the character counts! I've had to resist the temptation to paste in repetitious words, lol.
    So happy you like my little note there, at the end :-)
    May God bless you.
    Love, Mary Kay xoxo

May God bless your marriage for another 17 years and beyond in Jesus' Mighty Name. I love your poem. Aged or not, you guys still look great as a couple and appear to care deeply for each other.

"I know ... a six word poem, and so many notes about it! I never said I was a QUIET wife."

THAT made me smile as much as your romantic and sweet six word offering!

I'm much the same way! Ebullient in my praise of my husband! (He might have another word to describe my verbosity...)

Ah, but he loves me anyway!

Very nice...

Karenina

You have made effectrive use of the mere six words the prompt allows to express the joy engendered and maintained by REAL love. The love and devotion shine through.

"You dazzled me
with forever love."
Very effective six word poem. Thank you for sharing the story of your marriage, glad you found the one you did, and have had many years together. Great scriptures you have shared.

These six lines say a lot in themselves. Your notes and testamony amaze me. I like the picture. Your husband deserves a medal for presistence. Jacob only waited fourteen years for Leah, the love of his life.

    Thank you, dear Beth, for your phenomenal review, the six shining stars and your supportive analysis of the story I shared in my notes. I'm so happy that you liked my little poem, and I agree that Jorge deserves a medal for persistence! He is really a kind and compassionate person, too. You're so right -- I never thought about the fact that he waited longer for me than Jacob did for Rebecca! And then after 17 years, we were engaged for almost 21 months, roughly 19 years waiting.
    When he wanted to wear a white tuxedo for the wedding, I said, no problem. You deserve to wear white, too! The only thing was, he was in a hurry that day and wore black socks. When we sat on the platform in church, both of our moms were looking at him, and they wouldn't let him forget it. We still laugh about it today.
    Thanks again, Beth.
    Love, Mary Kay xoxo

'Forever love' is a wonderful expression to describe what true love is between two people. There are always ups and downs in the holy estate of matrimony, as is recognised in the vows. However, 'forever love' will always see us through.

    Thank you so much, Tony, for this beautiful, thoughtful review and the five stars. I'm so glad you like my expression, "forever love." When Jorge and I got married, it was a very purposeful decision, and once there, it seemed quite easy -- but the marriage vows themselves felt so special and real, transforming us from two people, to one flesh, as the Bible describes it. Forever love is a choice, as making a decision for Christ is also a choice. Jorge had somehow chosen to love me, long before that moment! I'm so blessed that he did. Yes, we're in this for life.
    Thanks again for reading and reviewing. May God bless you. - Mary Kay
