Through a misty wilderness we sailed
Out on deck the shadows cast by the ferry's sconces flailed
The buoys lonesome clanging seemed but a distant muffled banging
Smooth and steady we sailed ever hence
The lighthouse's glow was but a pinprick of faithful guidance
Inside was welcoming and bright
With food and drink, a souls comfort on such an eerie night
The late night ferry can be quite cozy on such an autumnal night
We kicked back in Lazy-Boys, ate popcorn and watched the Red Sox on TV
While infants were bounced on their parents knees
Although it was dark, misty and murky out on deck
Couples huddled close under blankets and necked
The steady wash of the waves and the drizzle
Couldn't dampen our spirits, not even a little
My love and I wandered between the deck and the lounge
Celebrating 22 years of love forged with a commitment profound
Two hearts committed to letting love grow
22 years of sharing highs and lows
I thank God we lived to see, our 22nd anniversary!
