49 Years 2015

49 Years 2015
Return again for fortunes sake
to live without frills and pay our bills
But thats just the nature of our times
So here we are at this stage of our lives
slowly approaching the golden span
our extended families fading away
when someday there will be just us two
and our children will hold the banner
to move the Sergi name unbound

This is insightful and beautifully composed Ralph! When all the birdies have left their nests there needs to be that bond of strong love remaining if you've worked as a team. : )
