Anniversary Poems
For The Anniversary Of My Death
by William Stanley Merwin
Every year without knowing it I have passed the day
When the last fires will wave to me
And the silence will set out
Tireless traveller
Like the beam of a lightless star
Then I will no longer
Find myself in life as in a strange garment
Surprised at the earth
And the love of one woman

Marriage
by Lynn Jordan
Marriage is the sharing of life
With someone you've chosen to be your wife;
It's not always happy, ideal or serene
But those times are, thankfully, far between.
If one partner's Irish, and blows her stack
The quiet Italian stays calm and holds back
The same is true of the other mixed pairs
If one is silent when the other one flares
Nobody's perfect, as everyone knows,
So both of you do your best, and it shows.

The Wooden Toy

The brightly-painted horse
Had a boy's face,
And four small wheels
Under his feet,
Plus a long string
To pull him by this way and that
Across the floor,

Anniversary Song
by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
WHY pacest thou, my neighbour fair,
The garden all alone?

by Hébert Logerie
Oh! No. I won’t wait until you’re seriously terminally sick
Or to expire in order to send you bouquets of ritzy flowers
Today is indeed the time, the hour to stand above the big brick
To show my love amidst the hubbub of seasoneless showers.
You are profoundly loved, dear colorful and calm princess
You are always on my mind, in my guts, my heart and my soul
You are always on top of the unbiased poll, on my pole
And I love you with an incredible passion since you are the best.

Anniversaries: Bump As Tranquil Wave
by Arshia Sheikh
I dug my heart into a grave,
Realising, I was never so brave.
Fondness and compassion are not my attire,
Willfully submitting my truth and desire.
Anniversaries bump as tranquil wave,
Showering memories which turn out to be frail.
Rewinding the love and burning the fire,
Am I rejoicing my hopes and not a liar.
A YEAR to remember
by Lily Isong
A YEAR to remember
It's today!
A YEAR to remember
Never felt a thing so strong
A brother and lover you are to me
Perhaps a bit more, all is what I count on
I'm out of words
Your love makes me speechless
I could never love you less

Twenty Years Together
by Julia Shaw

Two people met many years ago,
Their hearts would soon embrace,
They wouldn't let each other go,
Love could not be erased.
They married in a garden fair,
With flowers all abounding,
