20th Wedding Anniversary

Our Friends' 20^th Wedding Anniversary

  

Sometimes through gladness,
Sometimes through strife--

That’s how it goes

With a husband and wife.

 

You’ve promised loyalty,

Whether richer or poorer;

And tried to adapt

To homebody, explorer.

 

The little ones grow

Faster than fast;

They learn to drive;

You watch, aghast.

 

Now treasure each other,

For it’s been twenty years!

And things can’t get worse,

(Or so it appears),

 

And if you hang in there,

And don’t fizzle out,

You’ll soon come to see--

(There isn’t a doubt)--

 

’Though your mate isn’t perfect,

And you’re argument-prone,

It just isn’t good

When man is alone!
