Growing through the memories
tears of yesterday
Tomorrow's hope reflecting now
the very dream I'd made.

Heartaches of another time
carried through the years
Like baggage I would not let go
relinquishing my fears.

But life was never meant to be
full of all those things
As I began to find my dreams
upon my broken wings.

The joining souls of unity
as promises were made
Began the journey of our lives
on our own wedding day.

So many years before us
have lead us to the place
Where we now stand in one accord
at marriage's open gates.

Whatever pain or sorrow
before us we have beared
From now on each heartache felt
will be a problem shared.

We both have had another life
which has helped us make
Who we've become throughout those times
to where we are today.

And while a decade has since passed
when I first became a bride,
It's with you I now share my dreams,
my thoughts, my love, my life.

And nothing could ever take away
that special bond we share
As we journey toward eternity
and meet each other there.

How beautiful you are to me
with eyes of love that shine
For I'm so glad I married you
that I am now your wife.

No matter what today had been
it's just a memory
For you are real in heart and soul
and will always be to me.

And while gazing through a decade gone
in shards of yesterday,
You and I create the dreams
that we share now for always.

"This poem is a sequel to "Shards of Yesterday" which is a reflection of my previous marriage on what would have been our tenth wedding anniversary.   This poem picks up from there and tells of my beautiful and darling husband today....and how the circumstances of our lives previous to our own have brought us to where we are today with each other.   And how nothing that happened in our yesterdays can change our todays or tomorrows.   For those shards of yesterday are just memories in the wind while our dreams of today are here tomorrow and always."
