Exceptional We struck Gold Tribute to Debi & Glen Marquette : Our First 50 Years by Debi Pick Marquette Poem of the Month contest entry

I loved you back then, I still love you now We married back when, we thought we knew how So young and in love, so we would elope We asked God above, for children, with hope When we said I do, was like playing house But we had no clue, of life with a spouse Some days could be long, when we had a fight You were Mr wrong, I was Mrs Right With all of the tests, Docs said God forbids But then He would bless, three miracle kids I heard it once said, it never would last When we go to bed, that day's in the past As we look back now, was not always fun But we took a vow, that made us just one When grandkids arrive, two girls and four boys Then we come alive, with laughter and joy I loved you from near, loved you from afar Now do you still fear, I was after your car   At first what God sent, a flame to ignite Now true love is meant, with deeper insight   He gave us this chance, to God, thanks and praise Can I have this dance, the rest of my days My love and my heart, still yours, Glen my Dear It was from the start, to our 50Year     Recognized Author Notes Last night we had a wonderful party given by our kids at my son's house. I wrote this poem for my husband and put it on a plaque and gave it to him at the party. Making it 50 years with my health was a dream come true for us both. I also wanted to add my poem to the book to print it all together to take it to the partyl. It was a big hit. A big thank you to all my awesome friends who wrote posts for us. I would also like to take this chance to say I am so very touched by the sentiments in the reviews and in the many pm's I received. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart for helping make my 50th anniversary special! This has always been "Our Song" since the first time we heard it. Unfortunately I wasn't able to dance, but we still had an amazing time.
