Anniversary

A senior colleague of mine
Noted for his grand wedding anniversary parties
Never forgot to invite me and my wife. 
Ideal husband, the 50th he had made
Very special one for us to remember.
Elegantly dressed, he and his wife
Radiated charisma under the arc light.
Smiling happily he presented her a rose and
A diamond ring, the second one.
Rolling her eyes my wife looked at me, urging
Years later I needed to do the same.
