Grand ballerinas across the stage of their audience
Regal football players as they out maneuver the opponent
A mother’s attention to her prodigy’s radiance
Curtain calls on the operatic melodies
Effervescent snowflakes dancing in a moment
Featherweight champions shimmy on the gradient
Under the umbrella sheltered from the bouquet’s drink
Loving attention to her patriarch at the brink
An ordinary morning with celebration
It wasn’t so 15 years ago
Do the commuters in the cars know?
As they drive to their destination
Today the sun shines and birds sing
Not so 15 years ago
It was a blessing rain woe
The guests proclaimed it was a thing.
There have been ups and downs we agree
Sadness and true blessings though
Sometimes why’s when we were low
Most of all, it was meant to be
Happy Anniversary!
