(dedicated to my wife Kathy)

L ight snow fell
midst the balloons’ ascent
as our new life began
21 years ago
how beautiful you were
as we stood
surrounded by family and friends
we did not know what lay ahead
on our journey of life
we knew only of our love
and our desire
to make the journey together
now here we stand
more that two decades down that road
so many memories
so much that was exciting
so much unexpected
some we wish had never happened
but my journey with you
long may it continue
behind us
laughter and tears
rough road and smooth
so much to discover still ahead
together
we can make our future even better
we but need to know that’s true
as we knew it then
that day I stood with you
21 years ago
and shared my love for you
with those we loved
promising to stand by you
through all that was ahead
and here am I today
still by your side
still captivated by you
still in love with you
here I will remain
through all of our today’s
and all of our tomorrow’s
I was then
am now
and will forever be
your soulmate
awkward as I can be at times to show it
from my heart – I want you to know it
I do love you
She’s a lucky woman, to be blessed with a soulmate as appreciative as you are.
We just celebrated our 25th, delighted that it just seems to keep getting better all the time (hmm, could that be the lyric for a Beatles tune?)
Congratulations to you both!
Congratulations! May you have many more wonder-filled years together.
Indeed CONGRATULATION to you Rob and your dear wife…..nice when relationships can keep Relating……and big thanks also for your work here..
Oh this is nice! Our 20th anniversary is in December – seems like yesterday, but when I consider all the things that have happened in those 20 years we have a LOT of history LOL.
Happy Anniversary to both of you. And thank you for this image of what can be — if we let it.
