This poem sounds like you've been there and how! I love the humor and the fun way you play with the words so that the reader can depict the love between the two of you.
Thanks for sharing your fun side, my friend.
We all need to laugh at ourselves every once in a while.

Well he looks very cool despite his faults! Love this bit of fun here, Gypsy. It's so easy to look at your partner and think that's not the man I married, what happened to him? But you love him just the same! A great job with humour and relatability! Debbie

I should be so lucky to have a partner who loved me as much as that!
A really well constructed set of three critiques: physical attributes 3/10, age of and taste in clothes 2/10 and snoring every night 1/10, which amounts to a love that can overcome a 6/30 score.
Miraculous!
Paul

Yes, it's very hard sleeping with someone that snores, but it does depend on how much you love them, chemistry between men and women is such a tenuous thing. Beautifully written, blessings Roy

This was wonderful. Both pictures are exquisite. The humor was light and affectionate. This romance of long-standing. The good kind. Have a good week. Karen

I got a chuckle out of this one Gypsy. Many long term relationships are somewhat love/hate, but most people would deny it. I enjoy free verse poetry because it allows us to express ourselves more naturally, with a more subtle rhythm and pace. As usual it's a striking presentation. Well done. It should do very well in the contest.

Say what?

Marival plotting murder, even in jest?

Well thank goodness I'm not the only one who has dipped briefly south of sanity!

We can't be arrested for fleeting thoughts!

There are some people you just can't help loving no matter how they annoy you. This is a lovely poem that shows things as they are. None of that Hallmark claptrap!

Yes - the final stanza, in particular, made me laugh out loud! This is a wry, loving reflection on the humanness of relationships and the things we put up with sometimes for the sake of our loved ones (and they for us!). Thanks for the share!
