It’s our Anniversary© Tony Fallon 72017. 

Remember the day so long ago when we set out on our expedition
To sail into uncharted waters was our families’ tradition
You said you’d be mine forever I said I’d be forever yours
My promise hasn’t wavered my love for you still endures
When we started on this journey we often felt alone
Now our family is all around us so many fully grown
The pictures remind us of the memories we’ve amassed
And also remind us of how quickly years have passed
We needed the wisdom of Job and the insights of Freud
To keep this marriage of ours from being easily destroyed
 We often drove each other crazy with our pains and aches
And during the first few years we often made mistakes
But if you are going to be happy some sins you must ignore
Of be like other couples always angry and always at war
We each sacrificed to reach this really big milestone
The love we have for each other is now finely honed
When I’m away and think of you my heart and soul are singing
To be with you is my most important reason to go on living
Whoever thought we would stay together for this occasion
And have friends all around us to join in this celebration
And so we have gathered here again our vows to profess
And thank the Lord that as a family we have been truly blessed
So come join us at our Anniversary Mass and communion
And eat and drink happily and heartily at our family reunion.
