This is a lovely poem for Debi and Glen. Every marriage that has lasted fifty years is involved a lot of give and take and regrets and joys. Been there and somehow it is still going on.

Thank you for celebrating Debi and Glen's milestone anniversary! I like how you said "from early age love took off
In a carriage, carrying a cargo
Full of promises dear."
And yes, they kept their promises!

Comment from Paul McFarland
Nice job on the acrostic, Ulla. Debi is one of my favorites. You should spend a little time on your poetry. Once you get the hang of it, it's quite a lot of fun.

Comment from Debi Pick Marquette
OMGosh Ulla, you are amazing! Thank you for this lovely acrostic. I got the chills reading it and am so touched by your sweet gesture and the beauty of this. I am sorry I didn't see it at first as we are getting ready to have a party on Saturday, which is the date we were married. So thank you again, my beautiful friend. I just showed my husband who had not clue what an acrostic was, but thought it was pretty cool when I showed him. Thank you, thank you and thank you again!! Debi

What a.wonderful congratulatory tribute to this couple that have done what is sometimes hard to achieve, that of staying despite the flaws and failings in life, setting their eyes on the target, not the circumstance, well done Ulla, beautifully written, blessings, Roy

Comment from karenina
It's a terrific Acrostic, Ulla and I'm sorry I'm out of six-stars to adorn your lovely poem.
Debi and Glen have been through all the joys and challenges that a fifty-year marriage can bring ~ and they are still going strong!
I agree with your final lines: "Right now though, it's time to celebrate
Something dear and precious."
I'm certain she and Glen will appreciate your contribution to their book!

Ulla, that is a beautiful poem. I do struggle with poetry writing, but you came through in fine style. The picture also works well with the poem. Well done. Terry.

I love the Acrostic. You did a wonderful job!! I didn't even feel it disjointed at all as some Acrostics seem to be. I really enjoyed it, as I'm sure Debi and Glen will as well.
Hugs,
Rhonda

Aw, Rhonda, you are so kind. I am no poet. All the same, thanks a lot for your lovely words. I wrote this as best as I could from my heart. Thanks again, dear friend. Ulla xx
-
I feel you on that, Ulla! I can write when it's something I feel strongly about, so the emotion comes through, but the style and all that is iffy.
I really enjoyed yours, though, like a pro, my friend!!

Big smile!!!
Comment from RJ Heritage
This is a beautiful tribute to two people who have demonstrated the gift of love.
I like the colors you chose, so vibrant and yet so delicate, which truly depict the attributes of love. Well said and very well presented.
