Couple still dances together like they did the night that they were wed, they are so connected, in each other’s heart and head
They took their vows seriously as well they should, and the life and Love they have together, oh it’s been more than good
With every heartbeat, every breath they take, they live each day to the fullest,
They don’t hold back or hesitate, they don’t let anything go to waste together

She said “My sweetest friend, hold me close while my heart is on the mend” He just smiled, and said “I will, you can count on me to the end”
That’s when she finally saw him, for who he really is, much more than a friend, and she leaned in for a kiss.
She said “For years I chased so many Mr. Wrongs, when you, Mr. Right were in front of me all along…forgive me, I’m so sorry that I couldn’t see”

For Courtney Ann.
A million poems I could weave, and then a million more, about the joy and light you bring to me, sweet wife whom I adore.
You set my feet to dancing, and my heart to racing too, and I know this world would be much darker, if I couldn’t pass through it with you.

Through blistering Summers or frozen Winter chill, I know you love me now and you always will
You, my beloved are my heart’s delight.

(For Courtney, with my loving devotion)
In her heart he’s found
his promised land
She makes him want to be
the best man he can
He’s going to Love her strong
with every breath he draws
and hold her tight
with his two hands
as long as he can
The life they’ve built together,
Is worth all the storms they’ve weathered
and he’d gladly do it all again

Rodney was raised on the highway and in the jam joints
His daddy was a picker in a Southern band
He raised Rodney with a stern but loving hand
Taught him how to play guitar, and other skills that he’d take far and wide
On the day his daddy died, Rodney he let loose and cried, held on to that casket tight for a while
Then whispered as they finally laid it low
“I don’t know how I’ll let him go, daddy thank you for all that I know, and all the Love you gave”
as a smile found it’s way to his face

She said:
“If you’re not in it for the long haul, don’t bother at all, because I don’t want to fall, just to end up in an abyss.
Call me a cynic, but I don’t want you if your heart’s not really into this, just had to tell you like it is”

At some points, we’ve all had hearts broken
heard and said things we wish were never spoken
but I hope and ask that you keep your heart wide open
Always hoping, always holding on to Love
as firmly as you can

I’ve got a dear sweet friend heavy on my mind,
though she’s left this world behind,
she’s still a profound part of mine,
in my memory she’ll forever shine.
(A tribute to one of the best friends I ever had)

Ten years married together and they’re still going strong, all the good times are on their minds more than the times that have gone wrong
He still loves to hold her while they relax late each night, to see the smile on her face, and their future’s looking bright
The family they’ve built together, they wouldn’t trade for all the world, it’s worth more than all that glitters, it’s more precious than diamonds or pearls.
