How We Celebrated Our Anniversary

we chose well it seems-
our cruise vacation
fulfilled all our dreams.

we did whatever we felt like doing
we slept, we ate, we swam,
we relaxed, our time together accruing

we loved just being together alone
which is something we miss
when we are living at home

we played, we learned, we expanded
our horizons, our waistlines, our minds;
and I have to say I loved it when he handed

me a red rose and a lovely card
to celebrate our wedding day
all those years ago, it isn't hard

to see why I'm still in love with him
and how I am glad we took the time
to refill our hearts up to the brim

A Cruise

we finally decided
we'd take a cruise

and that we would
share that wonderful news

to all who would care
to hear, or my blog peruse

it wasn't really
so hard to choose

the price includes everything
except gambling and booze

which are two things
we abstain from, so nothing to lose

full buffets every day,
lounging by the pool, a late morning snooze

the fun, the relaxation
the beautiful views

seemed to simply add up
to an offer we can't refuse
