Once again...they say 'I do"

For years they walked in separate worlds
With different paths to tread
But destiny was patient… knowing
For them what lie ahead

Then came the spark on February
The 25th - 06
When fate stepped in and took its chance
And all the pieces clicked

Years of hello and passing by
Were now all left behind
For Georgie and Colin…timing smiled
And forever, their stars aligned

That June, they flew to Mexico
To toast her 40th year
Their first of many journeys
Filled with laughter, love and cheer

And 3 years later on that day
The 24th June
They said “I do” on sandy shores
Beneath the Mexican moon

And when their lovely wedding song
“Amazed” begins to play
They smile as they remember
Their vows they made that day

Two decades of devotion
Working hard to build a life
Two houses transformed together
With love… as husband and wife

Their home has echoed with laughter
Bursting ...with love and pride
Family, friends, neighbours
Always welcomed with arms open wide

BBQs, parties, music 
Karaoke, singing songs
Fun and laughter always 
Where everyone there belongs 

Nine beautiful grandkids
Six amazing children too
A house that’s filled with love
Where dreams have all came true

Though Colin jokes he´s way down low
On Georgie’s pecking order
Deep down he knows, no matter what
She´s always his greatest supporter

Together they stand proud
Together they stand strong
Happy with their family
In a life they all belong

Now life’s next chapter gently calls
It´s time to slow the pace
To replace hard working days
For a relaxing sunny place

To play some golf, see the UK
And find a house in Spain
To wind down...travel hand-in-hand
And happily, there remain

But first to head to Lanzarote,
With all their favourite crew
To stand together…side by side
Once again…to say “I DO”

So, here's to a love that's lasted
And stood the test of time 
Through every up and down
Every hill they had to climb 

For Georgie and for Colin,
May your brightest days shine through
On the road you walk together now...
In everything you do…
