Thirty-four years of
this<\/p>\n\n\n\n
me and him
he
plus me
me plus
him
thirty-four
kind of
incredible, isn\u2019t it<\/p>\n\n\n\n
just the other day we stood
us two
outside the backdoor
laughing like
fools
about something I had said,
and almost instantly couldn\u2019t remember
about something he said
then
couldn\u2019t quite
say
and I wondered out loud through tears of
hilarity
just who, would allow the two of us
to be in charge of anything
marriage, houses, careers, four children
two cats, two dogs, two birds
who<\/p>\n\n\n\n
who said, Yes to all
of this
You two… Go ahead and make a life!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
while probably neither of us would willingly
bow
to authority
or someone telling us
what to do
we consciously and blissfully
stumbled in<\/p>\n\n\n\n
is every day sunshine and roses
are we always in-tuned to each other\u2019s feelings
and\/or
failings
do we never ever take each other for granted
are we always loving and most
kind
no<\/p>\n\n\n\n
however
when I am having trouble falling asleep
I remember precisely when
it happened
after having known each other for maybe ten years
we somehow found
each other again
and
knew<\/p>\n\n\n\n
did we know we would be here
did we know things would be easy, thrilling and fun
yet also, difficult and troubling and sometimes
tremendously
sad<\/p>\n\n\n\n
did we know we would be stretched and
strained
yet remarkably somehow
strengthened
and
solid
together
the thick… and the
thin
did we know,
had we known
we\u2019d be laughing still<\/p>\n\n\n\n
always enormously proud of my husband
fiercely protective of the heart he carries
inside his chest
and how right, he makes the world feel
for
me
he quite simply, is where
I
am
home
and today, as has become tradition
I am at home
while he…
he
is on a golf course somewhere
Happy Anniversary my love
always and all
ways,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
and ain’t love
grand \u2665 <\/p>\n\n\n\n
