Hoary

When she closes her eyes, she sees his face. It is just as young and fresh and handsome as the day she realized she loved him. Though they both have grown, apart and together, she does not think he has changed a bit. She still adores him, he still makes her smile, still makes her heart beat fast. And when she opens her eyes in the morning and sees him lying next to her, she reaches over and strokes his face, his hoary hair, and she thanks her lucky stars.
