Ours was a collegiate romance.
At the school library where it all begun.
We came out fresh from high school;
Our dreams were full of anticipations.
We set our goals towards the future;
We're determined to attain success
or face a failure.
Hard at work and studies in mind;
We knew nothing about the cupid's sign.
Until one day at the library,
Myra and I were destined to meet.
And there, our fate was sealed.
Myra, in fact, was my classmate
She's nice and kind;
Demure, petite and sweet.
While I was the quiet and shy type;
A gentleman by and large, a good guy.
It was love at first sight
That drew us close together
after our first meeting.
It grew and blossomed into
a beautiful friendship.
We cultivated tenderness
and nurtured trust
for each other.
For seven years we remained steady
and committed sweethearts;
A relationship unscathed.
Surreal to speak, we kept
composed, cool and disciplined.
We believed that there's a high force
who guides us...
Back in the days of courtship,
We're under the radar of my future in-laws and mine.
Myra's Dad had always been my buddy.
Her Mom was as affectionate and motherly.
I knew I was a medium in a petri dish of their loving surveillance.
In the end, I found favour in their watchful eyes.
I won their hearts
After seven long years of building
a symbiotic rapport with them all.
Destiny would play a big part
in our lives together.
We're blessed with a blissful marriage
With Liam and Klint as the testimony
Of our strong commitment for each other.
Our children are the best things that ever happened in our lives.
The vow we pledged didn't go for naught.
Our love will stay, seven years
and more ...
beyond...
The cord that binds us
will hold us stronger
in years to come.
Our faith will keep us anew
for times till eternity.
HAPPY 7th WEDDING ANNIVERSARY
MY DEAREST WIFE MYRA!!!
