Grow With Me
Reinventing a Maturing Marriage
Darling, don’t fear change
Embrace new adventures
Without it life is mundane
Full of mediocre, stale endeavors
Let’s leap, plunge, and explore the wild
We have shared so many years
As husband and wife
Made a family and home
Come to this time, in life
Let’s fly, soar, to new heights, aloft
Grow brave with me
Without fear or trepidation
Break the stagnancy in our routines
Spice up our lives without hesitation
Not for others, just for me and you
Day in and day out
Schedules don’t shift
Not surprises comes our way
A boat lacking wind and set adrift
Let’s pull up anchor, sail the sea’s depths
Make the tiresome, refreshed
Step outside easy tranquility
In complete safety and trust
Not hesitant but wholeheartedly
Let’s taste, savor new flavors, hungry
Grow bold with me
Without fear or trepidation
Break the stagnancy in our routines
Spice up our lives without hesitation
Not for others, just for me and you
What’s gain without risk
Success without first failure
Appreciation of joy without grieving
Boredom, lackluster, mindless labor
Let’s search, discover unknown treasures
When we are then exhausted
Energy, vigor, curiosity sated
The past invigorating us, in old age
Recollections bright and fresh, not faded
Let’s add, create, rewrite another chapter
Grow older not old with me
With enthusiasm and excitement
Creating spontaneity, not routines
Zest for our lives, without limitation
Let our story keep going, grow with me
