Stubborn Love Poem by william savage

Stubborn Love

Steel blue eyes that search your heart,
moistened by tears whenever we part.

Honey blonde hair frames a Romanic gaze,
tenacious willpower strengthens her ways.

Woe betide an aggressor whatever their kin,
no matter how righteous - they just cannot win.

Near four score years may weaken physique,
stronger in courage, disenchantingly meek.

She stands her ground, never gives a metre,
I love her so much - who else, but my Rita?
