To Mary

To Mary
My family that I thought was small
Wasn’t really small at all
For years we met twice a year
Sharing food wine and good cheer
A toast to those who can’t be here

Then like a bolt out of the blue
I got a call through my brother from you
For forty years plus we were apart
But you always held a place in my heart

The day we met was so divine
At last my minds at rest you are mine
A kiss a hug a hold me tight
We held we talked into the night

With you came so many more everyone I do adore
Marylyn, Tony, Gerry and Neville too plus all their loved ones came with you
My extended family Thank you Thank you Thank you
