A Sepia Saturday Poem For Ada

Ada Trellis, my Beloved
When I looked at this old photograph of my Beloved today, I felt moved to declare my love to the world - or at least, Blogworld, and the followers of Sepia Saturday!

First And Last Love

Ada may not smile a lot,
but, by golly, has she got
what a gal should have, or not?

I keep her picture near my heart...
She's been my woman from the start,
since first love pierced me with it's dart.

And though her hair is turning grey
her lines and wrinkles, I must say,
make me love her more each day.

For she to me is the only one
who warms me like the golden sun,
and will do, till our lives be done.

  1. She is beautiful. I got a great laugh at your comment on my SS. Good to see someone alive and kicking. I love it. I am alive but not kicking much. Phil is not kicking any more either just sitting up talking about football. Getting paid a lot of money too.
