Happy the Thirteenth!

Thirteen Years On
Baker's Dozen
Bad luck you say?
Not from where I'm sitting.
I don't believe in superstition,
Or luck, for that matter.
But I believe in you.
I believe in love.
And most of all,
I believe in us.
Turns out
We're pretty good at this.
Happy Anniversary, I love you!

Happy Anniversary! Remember This?

1 comments

Twelve Years On
Our first beach trip.
It amazes me still that one unexpected message
One chance encounter, with no expectations
And, if I'm honest, not a lot of optimism either
Somehow turned into dozes of other trips
And a house in the burbs with a couple of cats
And secret recipes only we know.
One leap of faith, because what else could it be?
Sudddenly, somehow, without any effort at all
Became twelve years of unconquerable happy
And counting.
Happy Anniversary, I love you!

Happy Anniversary! These Go To Eleven!

0 comments

Eleven Years On
Eleven years
One dog
Four cats
Three grandchildren
Two nieces
One house
Three cars
A dozen elections
Two dozen concerts
All the homemade pizza and wings we could eat
And we're just getting started.
Happy Anniversary, I love you!

How long is that in relationship years?
Must be at least a hundred, right?
So how is it that it feels like it was just a few days ago, I was headed west to meet you?
Never knowing, never imagining
That ten years on I would be sitting here marveling
At how very right this all turned out to be.
I'm not surprised anymore, but I am still amazed.
Happy Anniversary, I love you!
