Dedicated to My Grandparents
Married December 25, 1928


Poem Artwork

 

 

Down through the years

We’ve had laughter and tears

We made a place of our own

And when things got tough

There was always enough

Of your love to keep me at home

 

You stood by me

both day and night

When I was wrong

And when I was right

You made what seem like

One heckuva fight

A lifetime of love

 

I’ll always be 

Right here with you

Living the dream

You made come true

I thank God I shared

My whole life with you

A lifetime of love

 

Now as we go on

Past the sun and beyond

I just don’t know where we’ll land

For God only knows

Where eternity goes

But one thing that I understand

 

You stood by me

both day and night

When I was wrong

And when I was right

You made what seem like

One heckuva fight

A lifetime of love

 

I’ll always be 

Right here with you

Living the dream

You made come true

I thank God I shared

My whole life with you

A lifetime of love

And when things got tough
There was always enough
Of your love to keep me at home.

Love doesn't get stronger than that.
