Silver Anniversary

In the distance stand the perfect couple
Perfect in every way
With friends and family surrounding
Moonlight spilling in through the windows like water.
Happiness and joy flooding the room
long lasting laughter forever filling everyone’s ears
25 years together
The balloons announce
Fountains of memories shared
Mentioning things like they only happened yesterday
Sharing the same dance as 25 years ago
Dancing as if no one else was in the room.
Their smiles are perfectly unforgettable
The cling of the glasses meeting halfway in celebration
Their night was perfect
Perfect in every way.
