ODE TO MY CAPTAIN ON OUR 7TH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY
Bon anniversaire de mariage!
The adventures we have known,
The story fabrics we have sewn,
The boats bought and sold,
Three homes we've seen unfold,
The unnecessaries we've bequeathed,
And new careers we've unleashed,
A new nest that we've feathered,
Joining Barrett / Poindexter together,
Saying goodbye to little Louie,
Hello to our new three,
Building foundations for tomorrow
Beginning each day with hope and largo.
Marianna Paulson
The friendships you have grown
And the winds that have blown
Whether fair or foul
Thrives on the seeds you have sown!
Happy Anniversary, Jacqui and Rob!
Jacqui Barrett-Poindexter
Dear Marianna,

Thank you so much!
Jacqui (and Rob!)
