The years have gone, I know not where,
Anniversary Poem
The years have gone, I know not where
The years have gone, I know not where,
We’ve lived through laughter and through pain.
We’ve shared life’s tapestry of love,
And I would live it all again.
There have been times of joy unbound,
When we have shared the things we’ve found.
We’ve grown together as we’ve learned,
And revelled both in every sound.
Through sadness too, we’ve shared those times,
Those moments of deep sorrow.
When we have sunk in deep despair,
With no hope of tomorrow.
We have confounded those who said,
Love would never stand the test.
The immediacy of passion,
Has simply changed its depth.
And so with all the depth of love,
I thank you for the best.
On this, our anniversary,
I look foreward to the rest.
