These Are My JOTtings, Part #2

Cavatina: "An Anniversary"

The day remembers all those years before
when loving starts.
This beauty of a girl and loving man,
they joined their hearts.

The first of years were not of money much
in spartan home.
Their friendship and their kisses daily fare
to write the tome.

The Lord has made our lives for His Own Good
forever shown.
The good, the bad, the little, big of days
in these we've grown.

The daughter fills our lives with many joys
and often smiles.
Four decades of this friendship ever blest
throughout the miles.

No matter all the days of future love
will be our bliss.
The days, that we have known to friendship keep
have written this.

One love is based upon His Written Word.
The best is given by The Living Lord.
