My Home
So what happens to love
After sixty-one years
Wed to the same special one?
Do hearts still beat strong?
Do feelings burn bright,
Do flames still ignite,
Two souls feel the aura
And glow for so long?
If the platform is firm,
If the lives create joy,
If the prized give and take
Command each new day,
Then nothing is changed-
But at times must arrange
To adjust to the troubles
That stand in the way.
My dearest, my love,
Many years we have shared
From that first day we met,
To this one, we are blessed,
No matter what comes,
Our hearts will be one
Growing older together,
Our love is the best-
For when I'm with you-
I am home.
