22nd Wedding Anniversary

36 Lines

On October 22, 2002
Sam Adams was celebrating
His 22nd wedding anniversary
For they had gotten married
On October 22, 1980,

He had met and wed
The lady of his dreams
Whom he had dreamt about
For almost eight years,

They met and six weeks later
They married,
In South Korea
On his legal birthday.

22 years later
They were still married.
But due to his job,
And hers were unfortunately
Living separately
In different cities.

Celebrating together
Was difficult
In the pre-Zoom
Pre-skype era.

An old-fashioned, old school
Phone call sufficed.

They concluded
That they would
Soon be together.

And hope to celebrate
Another 22 years together
Starting that date.

And they did
And 22 years later
They celebrated
Their 44th wedding anniversary
On his birthday.
