I remember when we took that trip to Florida
It was late summer and Labor Day weekend
It was our first anniversary celebration trip
We stayed in the honeymoon penthouse suite
Our days were full of exploring antique stores
And the fun popular tourist sites we found
Our nights were full of passion and romance
A trip full of hope and dreams for our future
We found some garage sales along the way
And some rare 1800’s antique carriage lanterns
They had beveled glass, gold and brass accents
We decided to buy the pair to display at home
Years passed and many anniversaries too
Our lanterns have weathered many storms
They are strong resilient and still work today
A great symbol of our love and commitment
By Phan Tan Hai
Forty years like a dream—
shaking off the dust of distant roads;
a faint trace still lingers,
tea-scent deep upon the lashes.
More than sixty passing years,
books read as countless as forests;
once hearing thunder split the peaks,
the mountains broke—fragrance filled the sky.
Returning, hearing the wind breathe,
sweeping through lifetimes of ignorance;
each page of Nguyen Tho’s words
stops mid-flight, as birds listen to the sutra.
Long miles walked without weariness,
the clouds of Tu Luc still drifting;
copying sutras in mist-like lines,
fragrance steeped into the slender strokes.
— March 2017. Respectfully offered to Venerable Nguyen Tho Thich Tu Luc on the fortieth anniversary of his ordination.
anniversary
old echoes rise, remembering
everything we are
We feel lost here,
It’s been a year
Since my biggest fan has departed
Leaving all of us disheartened.
Some days are good, some are hard;
Your leaving left us scarred.
So many mixed emotions
Our lives turn in chaotic motions.
I know exactly where you are,
Yet you still feel very far.
I know we’ll be reunited
And the thought leaves me excited.
But we are no less lonely,
And the days still pass slowly.
We love and miss you, Katie.
Love is of fire, love is of ice,
Surely the years teach us this;
Though Fortune may ride on the dice,
Let it all end with a kiss.
My love, oh my love, How do my heart ache for thee? You were the true love of my
life when I saw darkness at the end of the tunnel; Now there is light at the end of the tunnel,
you are nowhere to be found. Will I ever see my true love again? You're lost, but you
can be found. My love, oh my love, How do my heart ache for thee? Now there is
light at the end of the tunnel, you are nowhere to be found.
Will I ever see my true love again? You're lost, but you can be found.
Today is your birthday my love
A special day the lord has made
To commemorate the birth of someone special
A mother like no other
A wife so matchless
A paragon of beauty so ageless
A soul so resilient and true
A star always rising and determined
I salute you today my priceless jewel
Continue to be yourself and nobody else
I wish you the best life can offer
Happy birthday my one and only
Celebrate with grace!
And God will bless you with many more years on this planet
Happy Birthday!
LOVE YOUR WIFE AS YOU LOVE YOUR SELF.
I AM NOT PERFECT NEITHER DO I PRETEND
TO BE. SOMETIMES I MAKE YOU ANGER
AND SAY DUMB THINGS. BUT YOU WON’T FIND ANYONE
LIKE ME WHO LOVE YOU MORE. FOR 56 YEARS, YOU HAVE PUT UP WITH ME THROUGH STORMY WEATHER OF TIME AND GOD HAS BROUGHT US THROUGH THEM ALL.
LOVE IS NOT JUST SAYING IT, IT IS LIVING IT.
GOD THROUGH CHRIST JESUS HAS ALWAYS HAD HIS HAND ON US WHETHER WE FELT IT OR NOT.
IF I COULD GIVE YOU ANYTHING IN LIFE,
I WOULD GIVE YOU THE ABILITY TO SEE YOURSELF
THROUGH MY EYES. ONLY THEN WOULD YOU
REALIZE HOW SPECIAL YOU ARE TO ME
AND FAMILY.
LOVE ALWAYS & FOREVER.
JANUARY 20, 1970
Ephesians 5:28: "In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself."
Forty-nine years of marriage, and I know this
You still look at your wife and want a little kiss.
You do not see her as her age, but as a young bride.
Your feelings are on your face, you cannot hide.
You are more in love with your wife every year.
Your intentions are honorable, your love is clear.
Your wife has the same kinds of feelings for you.
When she looks at you, you are a mere twenty-two.
How do I know this? Because I have been married a while too.
When I see my husband, I think 17, and he is seventy-two.
When he looks at me, he says I look fifteen to him.
When you are in love, you become teens all over again.
I wanted to write you a
love poem. Then thought,
most love poems nauseatingly
lame. Recycled beautiful,
luscious, adorably cookie-cutter all
the same. Not singular, as Hollywood
Gable and Lombard! More like,
Hallmark~ just fill in the name.
With that in mind, I bought you
a rose, that will wither and die…
on the front seat of a new Alfa
Romeo, to continue park with me
or freely fly. Happy Anniversary.
The first time that I saw your smiling face
My heart was caught and could not look away
Your laughter lit the room with gentle grace
And in that glow my soul was meant to stay
Though years have passed your joy still lights my way
And when we touch I fall as once before
Each warm embrace makes me love you even more
An requited love is like decked, silvery, unstoppable carnation..
Resounding love dwells in an ineffable aroma .. like a timeless aura

dry ink on yellowed
license—November nineteenth~
their pressed gardenia
still perfumes the cedar box
where Mother enfolded time.
eighty-one springs fade:
the cake, the vows, their laughter—
dust motes tremble
as my thumb traces father’s
smile bleeding through the license.
no ghosts haunt these walls,
only the scent of camphor
and one stubborn thread~
Mother’s lace unraveling
from the hem of forever.
Your arms make me feel safe from that first glance.
Your soul, my safe haven.
You had me at hello.
Those true colors peeking through your walls: strength, love, and devotion.
You are my yin to my yang.
You ground me.
We’ve pushed through, standing our ground through sickness and trial, yet we still hold the line for our family we’ve created.
As years pass and looks fade, I will still see the soul I fell in love with from day one.
Happy Anniversary, my love.
