Second month, February,

fourteenth day in 2024, our

Thirty-seventh wedding anniversary

Numbers. Many numbers.

Fourteen, Two, Thirty-seven,

Two thousand, Twenty-four.

They equal today,

Valentine’s Day, 2024.

**

I could write a rhyming poem,

A love poem,

But this - this is a free verse

longevity poem.

Happy Anniversary to my

husband.

thirty-seven years

of married friendship and romance,

adventurous travels,

wonderful gatherings filled

with food, family, and friends

our road of love, dented with heartbreak,

sometimes cracked in tragedy or

wrinkled in illness

yet, we’re here, together.

I’m here

always for you, as I know

you are for me.

Happy Valentine Anniversary 2024.
