I remember so well the
Simple statement it made
Husband and wife
A living example of promises
They made
To love and serve to support
Each other
To stand side by side through
All of life's cycles
What was this simple statement
You are curious now
A meal served at dinner time
Then a husband and wife
Standing side by side
One washing the dishes
One drying them well
Each sharing a laugh or story
To tell
Two remarkable people that made
A simple chore seem like a
Love dance
An example to follow
A friend, a mate, a lover
Committed to stand by your side
Each day, each night
I remember so well the simple yet
Powerful statement it made.

yes... I remember that... well said!
When her husband died my sister said one of the things she missed most was washing the dishes together.
