Happy twelfth anniversary!
A day to take the measure of your love,
Pleased that it still fits you comfortably,
Pleased your lives so beautiful have proved.
Years break across your wide and gentle strand,
Then draw back to curl and break again,
While you together on that shoreline stand,
Enduring through the rush of wave and wind.
Long may you live with wisdom and with grace,
Fortunate to share a sweet embrace,
Treasure you no longer have to seek,
Home where when you enter you find peace.
