Different Gifts

oftentimes, I dream of ageless romance
but not the kind one might expect;
mine would transcend the need for sex
although it would be present all the time;
mine would involve quiet dinners,
walks along the beach hand-in-hand,

opening doors and smiling more frequently;
mine would not use words of anger
or indifference...
or disrespect...
or contempt,
but,
loving words that show sincere kindness;
mine would be the working partner kind
where tasks and chores divide equally
and actions would not wait for directions;
mine would be the kind where agreeing
to disagree would prevail more often and
provide guidance but in so doing we would
forget and forgive before going to bed.
