Our Twenty-Nine
Our Twenty-Nine
©2012 C. Brent Cloyd
You have been my darling for twenty-nine
Traveling state to state, place to place
My partner, my lover, my valentine.
We’ve had and held on in good times or bad
We’re not rich, nor poor, but our house is full
You have been my darling for twenty-nine.
You brought forth three children into our home
Two have moved away, one remains with us
My partner, my lover, my valentine.
Daring to believe we pursued the wind
We chased dreams, some saw light and some faded
You have been my darling for twenty-nine.
Faith, hope, love, and adventure paved our path
The call to service has been our highway
My partner, my lover, my valentine.
We have known joy and we have known sorrow
But our journey has brought satisfaction
You have been my darling for twenty-nine
My partner, my lover, my valentine.
