Happy Anniversary~

June 10, 1995

Happy Anniversary on this day, to the man

I would marry yet again.

When asked to devote my book no doubt it would be

to the first love of my life, Scott-

who took an aching, bruised, and battered heart

and tenderly enveloped my spirit with care, love and

total devotion.

I’m certain it was demanding and at the least challenging

being a husband to me

filled with minute trust, hope and belief:

along with modest faith in the arrangement of holy matrimony.

But he persevered, and crawled

through the deep crevices and craters-

abraded the sharp and jagged edges and

collectively we ascended through the abyss.

I thank you, I praise you,

I adore you and I certainly love you!
