How lovely that they have found each other at last and can stay side by side for the remainder of their lives. The poem is a sweet reminder that Love is evergreen and never really dies. The artwork is beautiful. So evocative of two people having a wonderful time together. Thank you for sharing this lovely story. well done cheers Cass

This is a sweet one, Connie. I like the dance motif that you use throughout. To dance stands for love, fun, companionship, letting others lead, creativity. It stands for so many things that this elderly lady was afraid to embark on. Her hesitancy is one of my favorite aspects of this poem. It makes it real. A new relationship must be hard when you feel that your time is almost done.

Thank you for this hopeful poem. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

I really like how you use the dance as a metaphor for a relationship the Speaker is willing to begin, following the "lead" of her new partner. I especially like the Speaker's optimism.

This lovely, flowing poem vividly conveys the theme it's-never-too-late.
There are specific concerns for older people considering the plunge again;
those who engage are brave.
