My Special Day
I wish you could be there,
On my special day,
To be there when I wake up,
To hold me in your arms,
To whisper words of advice.
I wish you could be there,
On my special day,
To kiss my cheek,
To straighten my veil,
To tell me I’m beautiful.
I wish you could be there,
On my special day,
To help me out of the car,
To walk with me down the aisle,
To give me away.
But I know you’ll be there,
In the most important place,
Kept safely in my heart,
And in the hearts of our family,
And I know you’d be so proud,
On my special day.

One of My Finest Hours
One of the finest hours I can recall
Came at a momentous time in my life,
When I stood before the altar, so tall,
Took Deborah Anne Going for my wife
Because, before, my life was full of strife
I was floundering along, life quite dull
In my early forties, a dismal lull,
I wondered what life for me portended.
Everyone of my friends’ lives seemed so full
Deb came along, my life became splendid.
