ANNIVERSARY
(Apropos A Sable King & Ebony Queen)


Perpendicular...a score and ten...
our weary feet have collectively
trod the level plane...foot for foot
bonded by the cable tow of love—Tiled.

Sailing on the ship of faith
we've weathered wayward storms...
their undulating waters...treacherous winds
and rising destructive tides...
enfranchised...still as one-in-one—Together.

Indeed...perfection on earth can never be obtained
by mere mortals as us...yet, we've been good for each other:
praises be to the spirit that has bound me to you: Glory—Glory.

That is wonderful, time and turmoil comes to us all, but a love so powerful can conquer. This is beautiful.
