Happy Birthday Mom and Dad
Oh countless oaths are given to true love
Still few can so survive life's passing tests
And rarer yet are souls bound from above
The fires of heaven lasting in their breasts
A blessing to have witnessed such a bond
The loving ones who gave to me my breath
None others have I known that are as fond
Of honoring commitment through to death
In seven decades now they have embraced
Each other midst a weaving of their dreams
United thru the bad and good they've faced
Each challenge as the truest of such teams
Of all life's blessings I have known and had
None other e'er will equal ... Mom and Dad.
