Lovely artwork and photo, presentation, notes, and poem, Debi. You did a great job with all of it. A wonderful love poem for your special anniversary. Using couplets worked very well for all of the description and rhyme.
You do a good job with the early days of your marriage. It had to be wonderful, but trying at times, too. You didn't need a matchmaker to make you a match! I like this line:
"I loved you from near, loved you from afar." I also like how young love becomes
love "with deeper insight," and I agree with that. I like the last two couplets that conclude your poem. Very well done, and what a wonderful accomplishment in your relationship to together.

Pam, thank you from the bottom of my heart for this beautiful review. I love how you always tell me all the parts of the poem that you like best.
You truly make me feel so good about the what I was hoping to get across. What is so important to me after fifty years of marriage.
What makes me really feel weird is that I have been 50 years married and I am still in my sixties. That feels so strange. LOL..
Thanks for this generous six stars and for the lovely comments, dear friend.
Love you lots my dear friend. Debi

You are very welcome and deserving of the stars and review, Debi. I appreciate your reply. Love you lots, too.
Comment from Aussie
I loved your poem with it's rock-a-bye lines. You have actually added a waltz into your lines - read out loud, it's definitely you and Glen slow waltzing. Even tho' you couldn't dance, God never gives us more than we can bear. Glen is your rock and without being 'sloppy' he must be a good listener. You talented woman that can talk under concrete! love, Kay. xx

Hello, my sweet Kace. I just love you to pieces. Must be why I think you are one of the sweetest people in the world. Thank you, my wonderful friend for the special things you said for Glen's poem. It does feel weird to make it to 50 years and still be in my 60's. I love your funny statements too!!
Thanks again sweetie, and for the generous six stars too. You are the best!!
Love ya! Debi

Congratulations Debi and Glen on fifty years of loving each other. I know the "in sickness and in health" part of your vows has been a test, and I'm so glad you've survived together. Wishing you many more blessed years together. Love, Carol

Oh, Carol, thank you so very much. I truly appreciate the touching review as what you have been dealing with too has been so hard on you guys. I still pray for you every night so I hope things are looking up.
We had a wonderful celebration. We couldn't have had a nicer day, but I ended up home early on ice and in bed. Which was ok because it still was a great day.
What a great day it was tho and I will never forget all of you here for all the sweet messages and congrats. I have never been more touched in my entire life.
So thank you, dearest friend, Carol. I love you with all my heart. Thanks for the gracious six stars too, dear friend. Love, Debi

My dear friend, This was a lovely tribute to your "first" fifty years together. I love the picture, and I'm so thankful for the "full" fifty years you and Glen have shared. God has blessed you to get to share also with children and grandchildren. Happy continuing years to you both! Hugs!

I am so glad you liked my inside and outside rhymes, Jess. I do love the style too, and actually changed it so many times that I believe there is no true version. However, I thank you for the loveliest words and for being so supportive. Yes, he thought it was beautiful. I will email you the one he got,
I do them a little different now since I sent you yours that time.
So thank you for the wonderful review and six stars my lovely friend. I am so glad God put you in my life. And thank you again for the wonderful poem.
I should check the reviews on that one. Thanks for the six stars too, my awesome friend. You are so special, Jess. I just love you to pieces!! Debi

You deserve every comment of praise you have no doubt received. Beautiful words along with emotion and the promises of commitment and I hope the pleasures continue showering over you both. You are a fine example on how to live and maintain the vows of marriage.

This is a really special poem to celebrate your first fifty years. The next big one is sixty, so I'll pray to God to bless you both with health to make it to that one and then beyond.
