The vows we said
The day we wed,
A promise made
As we bade
Farewell to the past,
Hello to a future to last.
Through the years,
Laughter and tears,
Happiness and sorrow,
And hope for tomorrow–
Our foundation is love,
Precious gift from above.
Our rings a token
Of a circle never broken,
Blessed by God
As life’s path we trod,
In sickness and in health,
Poor or in wealth,
Our love remains true,
Holding us–me and you.
