You have been my
rock of Gibraltar
Since that day we
knelt at the altar.
Throughout the
seasons of our years
We've shared
laughter along with
tears.
Together we raised
our family, you and
I
Until out of our
nest we'd watch them
fly.
We struggled through
the thick and the
thin
Managing most often
to do it with a
grin.
Through many a trial
and tribulation
I stood alongside
you with admiration.
Standing rigid in
the pouring rain
Bending only to
raise each other up
again.
Today we'll laugh
and maybe shed a
tear
As we rekindle
memories of many a
year.
We shall remember
vows spoken at that
altar
Leaning for a moment
on our rock of
Gibraltar.
