I do hope that this anniversary is our best ever,
because I've never really expressed just how wonderful you are,
but if my love for you were a distance,
then it would be further than the furthest star.
Actually, there's so much I'm going to miss about him,
he was loving, caring, he was just, well, he was just and fair,
he always listened, he was someone who I could count on,
he was not a man of many words, but he was always there.
We have a 29 year difference in our age
but that has not stopped us from enjoying each other,
you're my best friend, my confidant,
you're my husband and yes, my lover.
What a happy anniversary
I am a better person since I met you,
you make me want to be the best that I can,
and I want to give you the happiness that you deserve,
you see, I only want the very best for my man.
Now you're in your 59th year of marriage to (NAME),
and together, you've worked at your family dream,
and now, with two sons and six grandchildren later,
we're very grateful you're such a wonderful team.
Because I also wanted to say "Happy Anniversary",
I guess that's really what these words are for,
here's to you, you're truly wonderful,
and here's to our everlasting love, for evermore.
And now it's been five years plus six more,
if I'm not mistaken, that's a total of eleven,
and I've spent that time with my dream man,
so here on Earth, I've already found my heaven.
And we just wanted to say Happy 25th Anniversary,
I guess that's really what these words are for,
here's to you Mom and Dad, you're truly wonderful,
and here's to at least, another twenty five more.
I am more comfortable with you than with anyone else,
you are my princess, you are my dream,
and after our first year together, it's wonderful,
we've proved to the World we truly are a team.
Last year I searched so many stores,
in truth, I searched long and hard, high and low,
but I ended up giving you chocolates and a card,
and now there are some things you need to know.
And we just wanted to say Happy 50th Anniversary,
I guess that's really what these words are for,
here's to you, Mom and Dad, you're truly wonderful,
and here's to at least another fifty more.
Because you have persistently and consistently loved us,
and it seems like 'you' is always the last thing on your mind,
you have this wonderful gift of being able to inspire,
and we know that's a treasure and so very hard to find.
Although my first husband was a very good man,
and truly, we had many good times together,
but I know I've never felt this way before,
because what we share will last forever and ever.
But despite all that, we fell madly in love,
and on New Year's Eve I happily said "yes",
fireworks, sleet, a masked ball, dancing,
how could I say "no" to a lifetime of happiness?
You are the greatest gift on earth,
in fact, a gift from God above,
and now I know the meaning of marriage,
and now I know the meaning of true love.
But I also wanted to say Happy 5th Anniversary,
I guess that's really what these words are for,
here's to you, (NAME), you're truly wonderful,
and here's to our everlasting love, for evermore.
You gave me the courage to follow in your steps,
and at the end of day, that?s the greatest gift of all,
as Dad, because of you I walk taller,
in fact, I feel like I?m ten feel tall!
She loved the Lord and shared that gift with us all,
she had a big heart and taught us all how to give,
she was always thinking of and doing for others,
in truth, I think she taught us all how to live.
I also wanted to say Happy 1st Anniversary,
I guess that's really what these words are for,
here's to you, <NAME>, you're truly wonderful,
and here's to our everlasting love, for evermore.
I'd also like to say Happy 10th Anniversary,
I guess that's really what these words are for,
here's to you, (NAME)(NAME), you're truly wonderful,
and here's to our everlasting love, for evermore.
She loved the Lord and shared that gift with us all,
she had a big heart and taught us all how to give,
she was always thinking of and doing for others,
in truth, I think she taught us all how to live.
Look, I'm sorry I was a bit of a "stinker",
but it was a little cramped on the inside,
and just like Dad, I'm a bit of a fidget,
but I couldn't have picked a finer man - even if I'd tried.
I also wanted to say Happy 1st Anniversary,
I guess that's really what these words are for,
here's to you, my heartfelt (NAME), you're wonderful,
and here's to our everlasting love, for evermore.
You've always been such a kind and generous man,
you've helped many people when they've had difficult times,
and I just wanted to thank you for being you,
you are the one that has put the reason in these rhymes.
I remember when you came home and said you were born again,
and I think that rebirth made you a better man,
you seemed kinder, closer, you said ?I love you? more,
and spending time with us became your lifelong plan.
I know we have roach problems in the summer,
in the winter we can see our breath in the shower,
and year round, having hot water is a crap shoot,
and we can get a cold drenching at any hour.
And I'm sorry, but there's no chocolates this year,
instead, just my simple but undying words of love,
because I know that I've been blessed to have shared you,
I know that I've been blessed by the heavens above.
1 anniversary gift man year
