TITLE (EDIT)
Twenty-Eight
DESCRIPTION
I wrote this poem for my parents' 28th wedding anniversary which was a few weeks ago. I admire their marriage and I tried to capture some of it in here. It made both my parents cry... definitely not one of my best works but one of the only ones I'll let people read.

Twenty-Eight
Ashley Burdett

Twenty-eight years,
My, how time has flown.
How it seems just like yesterday
That I lifted up your veil,
And fell in love with your humble face.
I kissed your cheek,
Then something deep within me knew,
I would always be with you.
Now we sit here,
Growing together old,
Knowing we are young at heart,
And still newlyweds.
Yet as each day flies by
I know my time here is short and futile,
But still I how I want to just be with you.
And still how every time I see your beautiful face,
And every time we embrace.
I feel that day,
Over and over.
I feel the veil run through my fingers
And when I look into your deep eyes,
I know
What I knew then.
That I will never stop loving you.

"First of all I want to tell you that I found each of your poems very amusing and moving. You are very talented and I hope you will post more here! The kite poem made me giggle...such a cute twist I can't seem to produce in my writing. Church is one that I could surely identify with as I grew up in church and pondered what people could be thinking and then the hefty question at the end gives the reader something hard to chew on. Great stuff. Twenty-eight moved me to tears though. My parents just divorced after 24 years of marriage and 4 years ago, for their 20th anniversary (my 16th year) I wrote a poem for them, it was awful, but it made them cry. And yours made me cry too. Just brought back that memory of seeing my parents as the perfect married couple. Well, keep writing Ashley. Keep bein a student of the world too! Carpe Diem." -- AC Christine.
"Sorry about the typos....anyway...wanted to let you know I post here too and feel free to read my stuff!" -- AC Christine.
