We are going out tonight - me, Sue, Mom, Dad, Ron, Martha, maybe Shirly - for Mom and Damd's 60th anniveersary. Here is the poem I wrote:
60 years of marriage is
A hard thing to explain.
I try to think about it but
It stupefies my brain.
What glue is it that holds them close
And keeps them hand in glove?
Could it be something simple like
The fact that they’re in love?
I know, throughout their many years
Of anniversaries,
“To Honey” all their cards have read,
And they’ve been signed “From Me”.
A kiss good bye is natural
Each time they leave the house,
And always they are dreaming up
New ways to please their spouse.
With all of this, the 60 years
Can now be understood
As the power of a love
That’s strong and sweet and good.
