47 Years 2013

47 Years 2013

My thoughts and memories come and go

To go into denial of getting old

Recalling only things in the past

Endearing love that always lasts

To observe and enjoy the growth of your kin

With abundant love you always win

To live to see another day

Continued love surrounds me

Especially YOU
