for fifty years she stood by him
loved him through the years
and all the tears
when life dealt them
cloudy days and dark storms
loved him when they had money
and when they had no money
stayed by his side
during all the good times
and more importantly
during all the bad times
made a better man out of him
when he was a lesser man
and he often told her
he didn’t deserve a woman
as good to him as she was
and she said the same
to him for standing by her
for those fifty years
of lasting love when
he had been there for her
