June 24, 2014

We celebrated fourteen years today,
And thought about how little we have changed.
A party? Let’s invite the church and all
Our colleagues, his and mine. Throw wide the doors!

We chose three Scriptures: Gospel, Old, and New.
We sang two hymns and listened to a third.
The homily was long, but worshipful,
The vows traditional, but meaningful.

We didn’t care a lot for dress, and looks,
But food we stalked with care. Good eats! Rejoice!
Have shrimp, and cold cuts, cake and pie (four types)!
Your friends are here! Have fellowship and fun!

The day, more truly us than I realized:
As life has riffed our wedding fourteen years.
