Don’t Change the Dial
They stand as it were yesterday,
When they vowed to one another;
“You be mine, I’ll be yours...”,
A promise held fifty years after.
And he the farmer and rancher,
And she the teacher of young minds;
Both the dedicated Christians,
Tied in heart where only God binds.
How time passes so quickly,
Through loss, laughter and tears;
Building a home and family,
Holding one another up through the years.
They stood through the loss of a son;
And health faltered more and more,
But God blest their hearts strong,
For they loved as never before.
What is their reward given?
Offer praise to this woman and man;
For when this picture is taken,
They’ll be standing as then hand-in-hand.
I call them friend, nearly family,
As we’ve all known for a while;
These two folk belong together...
They never thought of changing that Dial.
