Notes About The Poem

Anniversary Tribute to My Pastor and His Wife

Anchored upon great genuine godly love’s magnificence
My Pastor toward his wife exemplified genuine care’s iridescence
Beyond romantic zeal around marriage vow’s faith-seal, truly wondrous
Proven by their triumphant wedding anniversary, indeed glorious!

Buttressed by the Saviour’s compassion of virtuous charity
My Pastor’s first and only lady sweetly epitomized fervent selflessness-serenity
Living well with her “I do” to husband-leader and ultimate sweetheart forever
Midst blissful one flesh* warmth of being in-love ever!

*Matthew 19:6 Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.

Dedicated to my Pastor, Rev. Ed Laurena and his wife, Ma’am Dhel Laurena
who are celebrating their wedding anniversary on January 16.

Carolyn Devonshire January 16, 2019 at 2:28 PM This is not really a clerihew, Beata, but I certainly do admire your faith and hope you are recovering from the loss of your father. Congratulations on your win! Best wishes, Carolyn

Caren Krutsinger January 14, 2019 at 8:30 AM Ah, this is so sweet. I hope you are going to share it with them either on the program or in person on their celebration day! Forty-three years is testimony they are doing something right, and I do believe they are probably both selfless.
