50th Wedding Anniversary Poem

I wish I would have found this poem by Genie Graveline before our parents 50th Wedding Celebration, but I guess it's never too late to celebrate such a wonderful occasion!

"50 Years of Love" by Genie Graveline

There's something about the two of you,
That brought friends and family here.
Perhaps it's the love that everyone feels,
In your presence whenever you're near.

Or is it the spark that's still in your eyes,
Or the stories you both love to share,
Or maybe the playful looks you exchange,
That express just how deeply you care.

No doubt, it's the sum of all that you are,
That gathers us here by your side...
To celebrate every year of your love,
And to honor this "groom" and his "bride."

So, may you continue to brighten this world,
And to get just as much as you give,
Enjoying the fruits of the seeds you have sown,
Every day...for as long as you live!

This is such a beautiful poem, it could be viewed as a 50th Wedding Anniversary quote, or even as a toast at 50th Wedding Anniversary Celebration.
