We met in early spring 1963, starting to date. She was 15, I was 16. Got married while I was on active duty in January of 1966. Had our first son in 1970 and our second son in 1971 then as they approached their teens, we had our third son and first daughter in September 1983. The road was never smoth but we went to Montego Bay for our 50the in 2016 and plan to see Jamaica again in 2021.
High school days
I listened to Lesley Gore sing
Day dreaming
Sometimes feeling like a fool
You Dad’s car
I gave you my high school ring
Friday nights
Trying so hard to act cool
Days flew by
Spent so much time together
Two young kids
In a small world of their own
Your Dad’s car
Sunshine or stormy weather
Drive in show
Soda and an ice cream cone.
Years go by
Felt the sunshine and the rain
Stood together
Butting heads against the wall
Life went on
Took the happiness with the pain
Staying strong
When the storms passed we stood tall
Stories told
By the lines carved in our faces
Photographs
All those memories make me blue
Thinking back
To other times and other places
After all these years
I’m still in love with you.
