ANOTHER

 

Our first year of wedded bliss

Then a second year united

Another year notched up

Yet one more year in concert

Another year together

One more year in partnership

Another year with you

A year of dull and sunny weather

The ninth year still bonded

Another year together

One more year of companionship

Another year of just us two

A year of sad and happy days

Fourteen years now coupled

Another year together

One more year of friendship

Another year chalked up

A mixed year of good and bad

Nineteen years now joined

Another year together

One more year of togetherness

Another year on the sentence

A year of nag and nag and nag

Twenty-four long bloody years

Another year together

What did I do to deserve this?

The punishment didn’t fit the crime

Not even the great train robbers

Had to serve this much time
