For 40 years,
they’ve loved and lived
A story-book romance.
The kind for which all lovers pray
That they will have a chance.
That does not mean that they
Have been without their trials.
Just, unlike those who cry and moan,
They faced their tests with smiles.
The smiles are what we noticed,
When we met, not long ago.
It seems that when they greet you,
They leave an afterglow.
This is not due to dentistry
Or physical enhancement,
But rather it’s their spirit,
Which stems from their enchantment.
Enchantment with each other,
And a love affair with life,
Have made these two a great success,
As husband and as wife.
They made it through the low times,
And soared with joy as well.
They have two well-loved children,
Of whom they love to tell.
Four decades make them special,
A rare commodity.
But forty years of marriage
Is, indeed an oddity!
We wish them many more years
Of life, love and each other.
And the joy of being parents,
Grandfather and Grandmother.
Happy Anniversary!
Love and great admiration.

We woke up in the
morning,
And it was no surprise
To find Flo waiting for us
With those beggin’ eyes
We all know what she wanted
Even though she couldn’t talk,
She had her ball all ready
And her tail was waggin’ “walk.”
So patient, she would lie there
With her ball right by her snout,
Until we all were ready
To leave and take her out.
When finally, we would exit
And head down toward the beach,
She’d take the lead and drag
Poor Deenie at full reach.
At last, she’d hit the sand,
And instantly drop her pile.
Then wiggle all around us
With a great big, “good dog” smile.
Then off she’d run to chase
Waves, ball and birdies too.
This happy pup told each of us
“I want you!”
“I want you to throw the ball,
I want you to run.”
“I want you to be my pal,
And share in all my fun!”
There is nothing any funner
Nothing to compare
To walking with Flo’s entourage
We were lucky to be there.
Thanks for a Great Weekend!

  Sweet
Girl, I miss you, you are so sweet
When we are together my life is complete
I love your big bright eyes. I miss your long brown hair
I see you as the earth’s perfect little mare
You are strong and lean, an emotional machine
You keep it all together, you are our seam
You’ve been away from me for two weeks time
My biggest fear is that some day you won’t be mine
Without you I am lost in a world of pain
I need you to be near me, to keep me sane
Girl, I hope your having fun on your vacation down south
I wait for the minute when I say hello to your mouth.
Come back to me soon, and make my light shine bright
I can’t wait to have you in my sight.
I’ll be waiting.....

  She’s a wife, she’s a mother,
She is Thomas’s best friend
Who radiates good nature
And grace - a perfect blend.
Her smile perks up our spirits,
Her warmth, our feelings tend.
Her chuckle makes us happy
And her kind acts never end.
She’s benevolence and affection.
With her there’s no pretend.
She’s vivacious and she’s gracious.
There’s nothing to amend.
Hat’s off to our friend, Alice!
To her our love we send.
Happy Birthday #60
Love, |
