On Our 25th Wedding Anniversary 1/1/2012 - poem

Holy cow, 25 years have passed!
We’ve achieved an important mark upon which to take note.
Having weathered the challenges & storms of blending a family,
Amidst managing careers, holding periods of economic uncertainty,
Along with geographic relocation, disease, care giving duties, and deaths,
We hold dear the continued unfolding and recreation of our relationship,
Marked by authentic encounters, allowing safety to fully self-express,
And freedom to discover our individual passions and callings.
Through it all, we just might be role models of possibility to family and friends,
Further complementing the meaning and value of our union.
While twenty five more years fits into the realm of possibility,
Let it be known far and wide, the past twenty five have been the best ever!
Happy anniversary, my dear Sandra, and bring on the rest!


Nathan J. Bender, himself
