In Remembrance of My Wedding Day, June 5, 19--

When we met, 
I was  seventeen, 
he was twenty.
We spent three years 
together, happy to be free--
then suddenly it came to us, 
why shouldn't we marry?
We loved each other very much, 
so why tarry?

So June 5th we took 
our solemn vows
that made us 
husband and wife.
Then in a few years 
we were Mother and Dad
to three fine children
who made our married life 
very happy.
I was Mom and 
he was Pappy!
