It’s truly quite amazing,
the trail which we’ve been blazing.
We deserve a round of praising
for the love we have been raising.
It’s been 48 full years,
all joy now, done with tears.
So, let’s give ourselves three cheers.
I think we’re without peers.
Like a smooth and robust wine,
or a true poetic line,
we’ve done better than just fine,
since we both uttered “be mine”.
Other couples might compare
to the life we’ve had to share.
Some might say it’s not that rare,
but we’re truly quite the pair.
Do we still have the will,
on hot days or in chill,
to keep climbing love’s high hill,
to maintain our lifelong thrill?
Of course we do, by any measure,
any thought or deed or gesture,
knowing if we search for pleasure,
love’s the greatest treasure.
So let’s not stew about a to-do list,
nor fret about what we may have missed.
Rather, let’s count the times we’ve kissed,
declare ourselves fully blessed.
