Ruby Anniversary
Mate those 40 years of nagging
Deserves a lot of praise from me
But then I know she has her good points
They just don’t show in my company
I believe it started through the dance scene
That turned into an unexpected romance
Then came that day when you both said “I Do”
Although some said it won’t stand a chance
You’ve told me in our times together
People said “It won’t last too long”
They could not have known the bond you shared
And "BOY” did you both prove them wrong
You will both share many special memories
Through these 40 years of wedded bliss
And if dementia hasn’t set in yet
You’ll both remember that first special kiss
So I wish you both many more years
And I hope I share them all
Your friendship to me seems genuine
One of just a few in my life I recall.
CONGRATULATIONS BOTH xx
