Notes About The Poem

Sixty Years Wed

Sixty Years Wed

Sixty years since the magnificent day
In many precious moments along the way
Xanadu in impeccable joy
That no one in the world could ever cloy
You were joined in married bliss to enjoy.

You are together where you both belong
Every day it’s clear your love remains strong
And both hearts sing a song of faithfulness 
Rendition of love’s soulmate tenderness
Sung softly all your lives in gentleness.

Wishing you peace, glee and love for all times
Extremely harmonious rhythm and rhymes
Dance forever together sweet Valentines.

*+*

“Diamonds are forever and plausibly 
All your future dreams were your destiny.”
Congratulations Sara and Tom!
