When I met Joey she was 15 and I was 17. We were married when she was 19 and I was 21 in 1962. We were married over 46 years. She was 66 when she passed in 2009, about 18 months later I was writing poems.
To My Joey Happy Anniversary
On April 7th these words were said do I take this woman to be my wife
I said yes for the rest of my life
...
Wedding Bands
I placed a ring on her left hand
A plain white gold wedding band
With all my love this ring is from me
I also wore a ring for people to see
...
Life’s Unfair
A husband and wife grow old together
You think and hope it will last forever
...
To My Joey And My Mother
Mothers are a gift from the heavens above
All through life they share their love

Play Ball (Softball)
My daughters use to play softball
I wish I could have been to them all
