Two dozen years elapsed by stealth;
May be, we couldn't do much;
Our marriage was mere sacrifice;
God gave His magic touch.
We couldn't enjoy like neighbours but,
Life brought surprises rife;
Our priorities stole our time;
God was quite kind in life.
The way the modern world goes on
Is disturbing truly;
We did our work with piety;
God rendered help duly.
Why worry of things we couldn't do,
And wasted time precious?
With heart and mind, we kept the road
To heaven, righteously.
Have faith that God will heal our wounds
Of mind and heart and soul;
Have hope, the future will be bright
To reach heaven's - our goal.
We did the best we could in life;
God gave us quite good health;
Be glad, we did so well although
We could not make more wealth.
No one predicts how things turn out;
We heeded conscience;
Who knows what plans God has for us!
The future can't tell, science.
Be happy life has been so kind,
And miracles God wrought;
May be, our dreams did not come true;
To thank Lord still, we ought.
Your hubby wishes you Mrs. Mercy Celestine a
‘Happy Marriage Anniversary, Dear Beloved in Christ! '
