A happy 30th anniversary to both of us. Who imagined we’d last this long?

Even though she thinks she knows him to the bone,
another little detail comes forward to be shown.
Like a little prize, presented for her viewing,
after all these years, he’s not finished with his wooing.
No fact inconsequential as he unveils his life,
so even after decades as a man and wife,
new mysteries are still revealed in words coined charismatically.
Each new revelation, an avowal made emphatically.
This poem is in answer to Marilyn Armstrong’s comment about her husband, Garry:

How special it is will probably depend on the state of the pandemic. At the very least, we MIGHT go out for dinner, although it might have to be “take out. ” I admit, I’m getting restless.

Oh, and I thought my comment I made ‘then’ when I saw it first, was lost! I sadly can’t view the posts correctly on the iPad, and I can only reply in the reader, so I also don’t see who wrote what! But even reading it again just now made me go ‘aaaawh all over, and the poem is SO fitting for you guys.

Much will depend on the state of the pandemic. Right now, we are at 1% statewide and less in this county. If if continues this low, we might actually get to go out. if not, we can get some take out and pretend 🙂
