I am autumn and you are spring If any of this folderol even means a thing. I’m a Virgo and you are an Aries sprite. And somehow the combination fits just right. If I chose tarot cards and you I Ching That did not make the wedding bells ring. Whatever the fates had in store for us two Is exactly what we are dedicated to do.
You threw a coin into the Trevi fountain We saw the future on a nearby mountain. We knew we were matched together for life Happy newlyweds, two husbands, no wife. After six months asking important questions We were sure this was the right proposition. Some people warned us to take a full year But we read the signs and they were very clear.
We saw or talked to each other every day Diving into the words we heard the other say. It was essential that we learned everything; Who the other really was and would bring To a lifetime relationship for two individuals Determined to keep the relationship in the middle. There seemed to be nothing there to reject; We were both what we needed, imperfectly perfect.
We were equally determined to stay ourselves And put the fairy tales on a childhood shelf And not expect the other one to ever change. Some people implied to us that idea was strange. My friends saw traits in him they urged me to stop. The same was true of him, but we were not cops. Instead I cherished the person I saw as great. He did the same so we did not need to wait.
Now, today, it’s twenty eight years of love As if we had the blessings from above. It’s like planets aligned and are blessing us In some kind of personal Age of Aquarius. We've had to climb over some gnarly spots But we're more than happy with what we got. We got a partnership, love that lasted a lifetime. So, we wanted to share it with you in this rhyme.
I made a couple of corrections after this got posted.
