A Poem for Erika and George

Two friends stopped by for a visit today,

Giving me a perfect chance to do my Giveaway.

Erika and George (see January 9)

Wished to renew wedding vows, and needed me to sign.

Forty-one years of happily married life,

Their own son recently took himself a wife.

Now ready to retire and start the next new phase

Of travel, adventure and freely formed days.

Sharing this moment with these delightful folk,

We chatted about life and love and shared some friendly jokes.

I gave them Japanese coffee cups decorated with fish.

Many more good years together, is my deepest wish.
