Over the years you've accepted all the ties, hankies and wallets
and all the hand-made items, our gifts of love,
you've accepted them all with such excitement,
it's like they've been sent from the heavens above.
He showers me with his gifts of love,
and its then I know that I've been truly blessed,
because of all the husbands in all the world,
I simply know that he's the best.

She had a zest for life, she survived two husbands,
not that she needed them but she also had two face lifts,
she loved to dance, play cards and to travel,
and she shared with us all her many gifts.
Now, we don?t often manage to exchange gifts,
and correspondence is generally the occasional e-mail,
but we wanted to do something special, because you?re special,
and mere mortal words, would undoubtedly fail.

I remember your wonderful Christmas gifts,
no need for wrapping with a green trash bag and a red bow,
and thanks for all those wonderful birthday sleepovers,
oh yes, there's a few other things that you should know:
You've always been there for us,
whether to baby-sit or simply lend a hand,
you've bought us so many unique gifts,
when you've traveled to a far off land.
Actually, your generosity simply knows no bounds,
and there's been too many gifts to individually list,
just know that each and everyone is simply precious,
and the memories we've shared I would've never missed.
You have given (NAME) and I so much in such a short time,
and they are gifts that we will always surely treasure,
but more importantly, you've given us your blessing,
and your love means that we have wealth beyond measure.
We've had two gifts from God,
and been blessed from the heavens above,
we've been given lives with so much hope and joy,
and have been simply surrounded by all that wondrous love.
Actually, most of our anniversaries have been like that,
but it doesn't matter, for I love you so,
and I just want you to come home safe, my soldier,
oh yes, there's a few other things that you should know.

I'll never forget the 23 years of Christmas gifts,
and shopping at JC Penney will never again, be the same,
I think I'll wear her favorite green and pink shirt,
I might even wear it to a basketball game.
