A Garden of Love
It began with that special spark –
Some sixty years ago.
Marie and David began to grow –
A garden made from love and trust.
They planted ideas that truly matter –
And surrounded them in rainbows of light.
They’ve enjoyed many beautiful adventures –
And weathered storms of doubts and uncertainty.
They’ve raised four wonderful kids –
Who’ve reflected well upon their values.
The years have come and gone –
Like leaves whispering into the wind.
Both sing with voices to one song –
With many years of happiness between them.
A gift of love so warm, serene and kind –
Comes from a friendship matured by the years.
There is a blessing knowing these two –
And a garden nurtured and filled with love.
