ANNIVERSARY

The first time we met in a crowded place,
I saw only you.
I caught a glimpse of your beautiful face,
And fell in love with you.

This is our fiftieth anniversary today,
I see only you.
We had our lows and highs along the way,
I am still in love with you.

I know, whatever life may bring to bear,
I will see only you.
Nothing is more precious than the life we share,
Because I love only you.
