Marriage

One August day, twenty years past,
One man and one woman
Pledged love to one another
From their next breath to their last.

Two kids and a lifetime later
Their love still holds strong.
They've had their ups and downs;
Held each other close when things went wrong.

To those who haven't married,
It can seem a miracle of life.
This woman adores her husband;
This man cherishes his wife.

To you who are unknowing,
Their love may seem unreal.
It's a true and wondrous thing
This love they still feel.

In another twenty years,
We'll see them still together.
There'll be more laughter and tears
But their love will last forever.
