A 50 year, deep and true love. A sweet, romantic old style courtship. A walk to my front door and a lingering kiss goodnight. I wish for a beautiful, love filled wedding. A porch swing hung under the shaded awning of our charming home. A slow dance to a Frank Sinatra in our kitchen while making dinner. Two aged and worn armchairs in our cozy living room.
The idea of it all clouds my head with the sweet and heady haze of a fairy tale romance.
And yet, I will admit, I am the first to scoff at the very thought.
