Heart 2 Heart

We stood at the altar in love face-to-face Declared our love, fidelity, and devotion Forty years of absence could not erase What we believed God had set into motion Years later, we get to walk hand-in-hand Living out our sweet golden years together We will remain a permanent and indelible brand The time we lost isn't relevant or able to recover Like two bookends, we stand back-to-back If variety is the spice of life, we are seasoned Pool our earthly assets, so we never know lack Trust and commitment are the ultimate reasons We don’t always see things eye-to-eye Nor agree with each other’s point of view We never get too angry to say good-bye Childish or petty conflicts yield no value Meshed together to remain side-by-side Only death can separate us from this union If we keep God as the center; His love abides Vowing to be each other’s love and companion January 10, 2022
