My parents met in 1984. They moved in together 1989. They count this as their anniversary. They got married in 1994, with my brother and I there.
Every year since then, my Dad, T, has written my Mum, R, poetry for her birthday, for Christmas, on Valentines day and to mark their anniversary. And she has kept almost every one.
This summer, I have been slowly typing these poems up. With my parents permission, I will be sharing one poem every Sunday. I want to create for them a living document of their marriage, their partnership, their love for each other.
