It is the day
before our 41st

(82 half years)
I had purchased

41st Anniversary,
a Love Letter


    1
    Pondering,
    remembering
    a kiss and
    your response
    even though
    awakened from
    your slumbering.

    4
    I hope the
    smiling paper
    depicts to you
    the happy thoughts
    I have of my
    Vivian’s
    eternal love.

    7
    and embrace
    differences
    that could enrich
    each others lives,
    a hope that
    they may have
    their forty-one. - - - - - -

    The Movie
    reminded of our
    struggles raising
    children and of
    rewards and
    sacrifices
    that were shared

    13
    While Vivian
    wrapped the gift
    I was sent to
    get the Chinese
    take-out that
    we then shared
    Hidalgo



    2
    I was on my
    way to work
    and had just
    finished putting
    the gift in my
    pack so I could
    wrap it at work.

    5
    Marie’s call
    later and
    then the call to
    arrange for an
    anniversary
    date a step- grand
    nieces wedding.

    8
    Marrying this
    day they could
    celebrate
    on valentines
    day so that
    forty-one becomes
    eighty-two halves.

    11
    separations
    as the penguins
    left each other
    to survive,
    separations
    in fact helped
    our love survive.

    14
    Then a pleasant
    goodnight embrace ,
    thoughts of an
    eternal future
    together as
    we submit to
    God and each other

Calls were slower
the first hour
but the purchase
kept unwrapping
for lack of tape
interupted
by phone calls

6
Then came
hope as always
that Laura and
Oscar may find
it easier
than I did
to accept

9
Our own real
Celebration
together
began with
Macey’s
banana splits
then the penguins.

12
Our hearts were warm
after the movie
and popcorn.
A pair of shoes
purchased and then
finding Laura’s
wedding gift.
