since forty-six years
Saint Valentine lent
his best Polish church
to my wedding
since forty-six years
have my bride and I
lent our best selves
to each other
since forty-six years
our marriage lent all
our best life and love
to our children
since forty-six years
our children have lent
us the best of rewards
our grandchildren
since forty-six years
have I lent my best
gratitude honor and faith
to my family

Sometimes everything has to be enscribed across the heavens so you can find the one line already written inside you. Sometimes it takes a great sky to find that small, bright, and indescribable wedge of freedom in your own heart. David Whyte

Looking ahead, without looking back (too often)

You're never alone, if you've something to share
All you touch and all you see / is all your life will ever be
