MARRIED So YEARS

So years on that October day,
AS fair as any one in May,
We pledged our word as man and
wife
To live as one till end of life.
So years we live to prove
There does exist enduring love.
In nature we can plainly see
The mated birds they all agree.
So years we now can see
Tho fruitage of the bridal tree.
Our children's children grand to
great,
Our value they can estimate.
So years with naught of wealth,
But blessed with will and needed
health,
We've fought life's battles with
Just aim
And only what is due us claim.
So years, If truth be told,
The wealth of life is not in gold
With needs supplied why not con
sent
To cherish in our hearts content
So years, departed ones we cam
forget,
In memory like a diamond set,
With brilliancy will lasting shine
Cling to our hearts as true as wine
5S years, what is before?
We count our years by more thar
score;
With patience we now wait thai
day
When we like all will pass away.

Dear old Virginia. place of my
birth.
To me the dearest spot on earth.
How memories OF the past will cling
Like pleasant echoes soundly sing.
The happy days of by-gone years,
With saddened memories and tears
All, all are gone, with no return.
The lamp Of life doth flickering
burn,
No more I'll fish Aqua stream,
But cherish past as though dream
And dear old Belle Vue, with lotty
height,
VIII no more cheer me with delight
Life has its day, tho long with me
The past no more can ever be.
Tho recollections sad and sweet
The past and present now do meet
So all of life at most is brief,
Tho measured years by fading leal
Now on the brink, with scores to
count,
How do they measure in amount
II honest life is to my due,
Then only does 1t prove the true
Such, such is all | purely claim
The golden rule is but a name.
