It's our 20th Anniversary!
The Gate

It was this day in eighty-eight,
that I leapt to my belief in fate,
and though I made this leap rather late,
because those gone before didn’t rate,
she became the most wonderful type of mate!

She was like a mystical gate,
into the world we would domesticate.
Learning how to reciprocate,
as well as the best way to facilitate,
she became so easy to tolerate,
even when me she would infuriate!

Though others would try to contaminate,
the focus we would put on our own state,
our love this would only accelerate.
for that is the way of this wonderful gate,
the love does not bind, but liberate.

The love makes it so easy to motivate,
and this motivation I can’t understate,
for all of my life flows through this gate,
and it I would never negotiate!

So please join us as we celebrate,
choosing to walk through this wonderful gate,
way back in nineteen eighty-eight!
