No lines


When I drove by and stopped to take this picture, 
I didn’t see the lines: 
I only saw the pond, the trees, 
The mountains and the sky.
 My husband tells me much the same: 
When he sees my face, 
He doesn’t see the lines that come with age, 
He only sees the smile, 
The eyes that light up, seeing him; 
The face he married 40 years ago.
