To Karen
On Her Birthday 1991

Karen
The years, they pass
So fleetingly;
They pile up under our feet.
This embitters some of the people I know;
But you get more and more sweet!

You never stop learning
You never stop loving
You never stop being
Anybody but you.

The age you are at always agrees
With your wonderful outlook
On life
And the Older I get,
The more I appreciate
The wisdom that made you
My Wife!

I love you so much, Babe!
Doug
