It was over fifty years ago <br />They met and something clicked <br />After all the folks they had met before <br />They found the perfect person to pick <br /> <br />Larry and Lois had a purpose <br />They knew the direction they’d go <br />Nothing would stand in their way <br />Because they loved each other so <br /> <br />So marriage was inevitable <br />In time the couple had three boys <br />Working together to raise their family <br />Patience was always employed <br /> <br />They took their vows seriously <br />Trudging down life’s worn pathway <br />Keeping that strong firm direction <br />Always meeting one another half way <br /> <br />Of course there were a few hills <br />And at times some stormy weather <br />But the main thing that was important <br />Was they climbed those hills together <br /> <br />And now those fifty years are past <br />And their happiness isn’t just a rumor <br />Their beautiful smiles are evidence <br />Along with a great sense of humor!<br /><br />Marilyn Lott<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/fifty-years-together/
