    1. Thank you for visiting and haiku comment! I am not so brave. My husband and I married less than a year ago after an 11 year courtship. Our age doesn't compute to internal perspective but we are 60. We will be "until death do us part". We met by chance/fate on an internet dating site.

    2. We met by destiny at the library. Long story.
      Here's to happily ever after.

      Cheers!

    1. Thank you, Maliny, for your touching comment. I never know if my haiku is good. It just flows and I rarely "play" with it. Lovely affirmation from you!
