Growing up in the country
Meeting in a small town
Getting to know each other
Holding onto every sound

A marriage we chased
As we ran away young
Our hearts filled with joys
Singing from our tongues

And we were so blessed
With a daughter and 2 sons
Grown up to be the best
And now two grandsons of fun

Our family grew from two
To a loving family of nine
The blessings are all ours
Many, both yours and mine

Old age is upon us  from 50+ years
As we now have more time
After we have beaten many fears
Now share memories that were fine

Our arms go around us in bliss
For so many years so kind
Holding on fast with a kiss
Feeling like one for all time

I can't believe it will be 60 years this year.
