This is definitely true: in it's profound simplicity it is another way of saying that actions speak louder than words. Love is not chatterbox empty words - the demonstration of loving deeds is more meaningful.

Thank you for the honor. I don't recall my parents saying I love you,
But they proved it every day.

My Dad was the strong silent type; I never heard it from his lips either, but in deeds he was such a giving, caring man. And that is what really matters, just as with your parents. We are a different generation with a different style, so I hope you can say those words to your son directly. I know you are proud of him in poems.

Believe it or not, I still call him baby. He'll be 56 February 23rd.

Ohhhh! How excellent this is. Wise words, indeed. I love this simple message. And it's made even more perfect with your choice of this vintage photo to accompany it. EXCELLENT entry, Mystery Poet. Good luck to you! xo

Well, I think you said a lot in just a ten word poem. It's a lovely picture too. I can tell by the cars in the background that you've been together for a long time. Congratulations. So nice. Good luck with your contest.

We celebrated our 60th anniversary just before she passed. We met
when she was 13 and I was 14. Never broke up until she passed.
Still in love.

Consider yourself very lucky. In this day when divorce is so prevalent, it's a wonderful testimony to your love!!

I was married to a very exceptional and loving woman. She was the first for me and I was the first for her.

This is a solid entry for the contest. I love the wise sentiments, and the photo makes yours words more moving.
You could easily win with your post just as it is, but if it were me, I would make some changes to the presentation to make it shine. Voters read through the entries so quickly, you want to make a great first impression even before they read the words.
I would make the background gray or goldenrod, center the words, and make the font bigger-maybe 18 or 20. Of course, this has nothing to do with your ability to write. I would just like for you to win, and I even entered the contest. It's definitely good enough to win.
