Extension
“I’d like an extension, please, on my marriage,” Chas knelt to the linoleum with Carl’s hands in his.
“Chas, you know I am forever yours, no extension needed, we are forever and ever, no doubt,” Carl’s misty eyes told more.
“Yes, yes, my love, I know this, but, you see, we got a late start on all this legal mess and, well, I want to gain back what we missed, you know, as if we could, but I am a dreamer,” Chas slipped his hands on Carl’s knees.
“Fear not, my love, although we had to do this legally, for obvious reasons, my heart has been yours ever since I first saw your eyes and this is something that time cannot strip away,” Carl grasped Chas’ hands and held them to his heart, before wiping his tears.
“True, my love, we can’t go back in time and while our tomorrows are counted, we can still celebrate our love each and every day; When I wake and look in your eyes, I know the day has our names embossed on whatever plans are made,” Chas closed is eyes while tears rolled down his cheeks.
Carl looked to the universe and cried, “Today, just for today, let’s celebrate, as the clock needs to stop for us, just for this day; Is that too much to ask?”

Whne the time comes to go, I’ll hate to leave TLW behind. But I’m guessing there will be no extension.

How beautiful it would be if all of us could stop the clock for five minutes, just once.

A lovely message to enjoy each moment while we have them. We can’t recapture the past or recover time already spent, but we can try our best to make the most of the present.

Written with such sentiment and sweet emotion Love is eternal, and while there may be no going back they can most certainly have forever after without the limitations of place and time.

I think that everyone has or will have moments in time when the wish is that time just stop so you can soak in the moment a little longer.
Great Six.
