My blogging friend, Russ Towne, wrote and posted the following today:

“Of couples I’ve seen

Way more than a few

Where one is the glitter

The other’s the glue.”

I smiled when I read that

Realizing that I do a lot of glittering

And my dearest friend,

My spouse of 55 years,

Has been a source of the glue

That sticks us together

And has helped this union last.

Yup, it takes both kinds.

Thanks, Bob!

Thanks for being the glitter

Right when we needed it, too.

My daddy was right when he said,

“Take this expensive tax deduction

Off of my hands!”

Glitter comes at a price.

I love that man of mine!!

He’s the glue that keeps the lawn mowed

And the glitter that keeps the love growing.

Couples need a lot of both!
