Happiest Days
By Edward H. DonnellyI said to the little children,
"You are living your happiest days,"
And their bright eyes opened wider In innocent amaze.
For their happiness was so perfect,
They did not know it then;
"Oh, no," they said, "there'll be happier days
When we are women and men."
I said to the youth and maiden,
"You are living your happiest days,"
And into their sparkling eyes there crept
A dreamy, far-off gaze;
And their hands sought one another,
And their cheeks flushed rosy red;
" Oh, no," they said, " there'll be happier days
For us when we are wed."
I said to the man and woman,
"You are living your happiest days,"
As they laughingly watched together
Their baby's cunning ways.
"These days are days of labor.
They can hardly be our best;
There'll be happier days when the children are grown,
And we have earned our rest."
I said to the aged couple,
"You are living your happiest days,"
Your children do you honor,
You have won success and praise.
" With a peaceful look they answered,
"God is good to us, that's true: But we think there are happier days for us
In the life we're going to."
We can’t believe that Victoria and David Beckham has been married already for an impressive 19 years, but it’s true! They recently just celebrated their anniversary, both sharing pictures on their Instagram accounts of their festivities together honoring their many years of unconditional love for each other.
They got married on July 4th, 1999 in front of all of their closest celebrity friends, as well as the Spice Girls of course. Since then, they’ve had four beautiful children, and have pretty much taken over both the U.K and the U.S, with their successful careers in football, fashion and singing.
David shared a picture of the couple sharing some wine at a restaurant terrace, looking as chill as ever. Despite the relaxed vibes, David couldn’t help himself from bringing in some nostalgia into his caption, referring to his unique ’90s fashion choices, that left him dressed head to toe in purple on his wedding day.
Victoria posted the same picture on her account, however it seems as though she preferred her ’90s style to be kept more on the down low, without any mention of it. Either way, congrats to the smashing couple on a beautiful marriage.
