Happy Anniversary Poem to Mom & Dad...

User Rating:

10.0 /10

  23 YEARS! ! How time does fly! !

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY to our Dear Parents;
Bill and Vi.

Mom first met Dad when he was just 38;
And his only pleasure was drinking beer and
hopping a freight.

It all started one night when Mom, a mere 26;
Stopped at the Metro Club with her sister-in-law,
Barbara, for sodas and chips.

From across the bar their eyes met in the
smoke-filled haze;
Mom's full of stars-Dad's all beer-glazed.

Their love soon blossomed and Dad's heart
was aflame;
For he knew he'd found his true love at last,
His one and only 'SugarBabe.'

Dad true to his word, took Mom away from it all;
And with three kids and a falcon they headed
for Duval!

And all through the years their love has been
strong;
Even when Mom's right and Dad's always
wrong!

Who could ask for more loving parents who have
struggled and strived;
to raise five hooligans and still manage to survive!

We all love you Mom and Dad, each in our own
different way;
And the loving memories throughout the years
in our hearts will forever stay...

Always and Forever;
Debbie, Bonnie, Robin, Chris & Pat
