Poem

People often ask the old couple, who’ve been married for so long, 
What’s the secret to your marriage…the key that’s made it last so long?

The couple look at one another…then with a gleam reflected in their eyes…
They smile, take a deep breath and out pop their replies:

Everyone must find their own paths to happiness once they accept their wedding rings…but, for us, the secret is quite simple…it lies in all the little things.

It’s not only listening when the other person talks…it’s hearing what they have to say.
It’s a note that says ‘I love you’ at the end of a long day.

It’s a little gift that’s given when there’s no reason for a gift…
just to say ‘I’m thinking about you” and to give your day a lift.

It’s a drive out in the country at some random time on some random day…
and stopping by a random stream for a picnic along the way.

It’s reaching something on the top shelf when your short wife is unable…
It’s anytime our family gathers around our dining room table.

It’s sharing our deepest fears…our long range goals…all our hopes and wishes…
while one person does the cooking and the other does the dishes.

It’s a surprise call in the middle of the day just to hear the other’s voice…
It’s being together during sad times…and times when we rejoice.

It’s watching the sunrise hand-in-hand and thinking about the day we met…
It’s still holding hands in the evening while watching the sun set.

They never know what answers will pop out…what simple things they’ll name
but the last words out of their mouths have always been the same.

The secret for us has been living with someone we adore…and all the joy that brings….
joys we are blessed to discover every day…
in all the little things.
