Anniversary

 

Today is the anniversary of our first lunch

I call it our first date

You insist you never went on a date

 

In a way, our first date was our dinner

Where I gave you my business card

With all eight of my possible phone numbers

 

You were wearing a dark red pants suit

And strode purposely across the room

And I thought to myself

“Wow, she is very interesting.”

I had no idea!

 

Now, as we begin our 23^rd year together

You are more interesting

With each passing day

And my love for you grows

In its abundance
