Anniversary Poem to Jared

When I met you

I knew you were the one

not by the things we shared in common

but by the things we couldn't fathom about one another

Your wit was so thick that it stopped me in my tracks

I had to actually rewind my mind and take a few steps back

Growing up I had my ideas of romance and the "perfect life"

and I'm sure you had your thoughts of what the "perfect wife" would be like

When God placed the two of us together

He devised a perfect plan

One that would withstand

He couldn't make anything less than

May 7, 2004 was the day that my heart dropped to the floor.

I asked God, is this the one you want me to soar with?

The one I'm supposed to adore?

"There are no mistakes in this union!" He roared.

And His voice, I couldn't ignore

Fast forward to this day in time

Throughout the continents, from Germany to the states

And we still shine together

What we have is straightforward and forever

It's unaltered by the strains of space or time

Fifteen years of loving you, Jared

and I still want more of you

I just can’t spare it.
