To get to thirteen it starts with a day
From once a girl’s dream to getting her way
With eyes all on her dressed up in white
The moment is here what a beautiful sight
A young woman in love is dangerous indeed
When plans for the future is her number one need
The fantasy is over and real life has begun
Is this really it am I regretting this one
Reality hits and lessons are learned
Love is an action and trust must be earned
With the good and the bad year after year
God’s special plan becomes crystal clear
It’s all in the Bible there’s no secret it’s told
Follow this wisdom and the blessings unfold
The truth of these words should be at the core
First Corinthians thirteen starting at four
It starts out by saying Love is patient and kind
It might sound so simple but keep this in mind
Love does not envy, it’s not boastful, or conceited
This is important and needs to be heeded
Love acts not improperly, is not selfish, or provoked
When truthful and convicting proper behavior’s evoked
Keeps no record of wrongs for this is what’s couth
No joy in unrighteousness but rejoices in truth
Now within this is knowledge and is the greatest of cures
It’s in all things love bears, believes, hopes, and endures
Through experience I’ve learned how true this all is
For the Word is my lamp and the glory is His
God, you have chosen this beautiful man
My husband, my friend, he’s part of your plan
And out of this love came our most greatest joy
Our two precious kids our girl and our boy
As parents we strive to be the best mom and dad
We know that with Christ it will never go bad
A perfect fit we are that completes him and me
For always and forever his devoted wife I will be
To love and to cherish till the day that I die
I’m excited for our future together him and I
It’s a marker on this journey but as a team we want more
For it’s obvious now that there’s way more in store
So to my soul mate, my partner, I say through my tears
I love you and thank you for all thirteen years
