Journey of Perfection
Written on the occasion of our 7th wedding anniversary (May 27, 2013).
Journey of Perfection
Seven is perfection
Or so they say
But I think that I tend
To disagree
For eighty-four months
Have we enjoyed bliss
And it seems fair to ask
Can it get better than this?
But I think that it can
Perfection’s not yet
More ways to grow
For us still are left
And so I guess
That we just must go on
Year after year
Until we’ve finally found
That place once achieved
Where there’s nowhere to go
In which few believe
But I hope that you know
That perhaps we might get there
Though likely might not
But either way this I say
That we’ll give it a shot
In the meantime, together
Yes, you and me
On this journey to be
And to do and to see
Just where we might go
And how we might grow
As deeper we know
The seeds He does sow
Happy I am
Anniversary achieved
More years than some dare
Or others believe
But many more I expect
And look forward to
As our love we perfect
And I give my life to you
