Love Poem: Twenty Eight

Twenty Eight

Twenty eight years – oh my
So fast - they do go
From the sweet young girl I first met
To the beautiful women I now know

It just keeps getting better
Like wine – it refines
It deepens the meaning
Great things come - all in due time

Commencement – a new journey
Another stepping of a stone
New chapter – love story
Our life – rich – what a beautiful flow

Our little girl – now - moving on
Our son – what a young man
You and I together
The next stage in life – seems to be part of a divine plan

Amor fati – Latin – for the love of one’s fate
You are inseparable from my story
In fact
You are my story – wow - isn’t that great!

Enriched - knowing where we are
It’s an amalgamation of all that we do
Twenty eight years together
I look forward – to spending the rest of my life - with you
