Happy Anniversary

A meditative sun squints At a cloud imbibing atmosphere As stars blaze the quilt of night “To dawn,” says Tick Tock And the darkness rises And their doubt shrinks On the day that forever promises A will to stop trying Caution idles motionless From the gardens of proposal Walking towards a sea of matrimony Love blossoms chosen A bond is sounded hand and ear A contract sealed to each finger A covenant resounds from this day forth As days advance And nights are spent Today is… For he and she always.
