Happy Anniversary 33

You’ve been my muse since we first wed.

Your love and warmth filled head and bed.

You shared my world and poetry

and gave both life and energy.

And though the aches and pains of age

are now a part of our life’s page.

The love of my muse is now a cure,

and there is naught I can’t endure.

God bless us with many more years,

and let love buoy us through nadirs.
