HIS SIMPLE VOWS
His vows to her were succinct…simple and sincere…
spoken while looking into her eyes in a voice both loud and clear.
We’re about to take a journey together…it’s going to be a wild ride…
wherever this journey takes us…know…I’ll be by your side.
When the sun shines brightly upon your life…on our day-to-day parade….
I’ll be right beside you…waving…smiling in your shade…
And when storm clouds block your sun…
until those storm clouds wane….
from this day on…forevermore…I’ll be your umbrella in the rain.
She smiles every now and then when she looks over at this old man…
thinking of all they have been through….
How…through the sun and rain he held true to his vows…
from the moment he said I do.
