Parent's Anniversary Poems

Needless to say, our parents will always occupy a special place in our hearts, despite their eccentricities and idiosyncrasies. After all, they are the ones responsible who bring us up, and see us through thick and thin. They guide us at every step and support us in the different phases of our lives. Their only joy lies in nurturing us and making us grow into successful and sensible individuals. They make sacrifices aplenty only for our welfare and well-being, without ever considering gratifying themselves in the process. However, life was very different for them when they lived together before you and your siblings were born. But with you entering the picture, family activities, duties and responsibilities came to the forefront and consequently, their own relationship was put on the back burner. They concentrated all their efforts on satisfying all your needs so that you do not feel deprived in any way. You must never ignore them thinking that looking after you was their duty. If you want to make them feel special and acknowledge their loving care, you can celebrate their anniversary, which is a special occasion commemorating the years they spent together. You can also take the occasion to express your feelings for them. One way to celebrate this moment of companionship is by devoting a few poems to this lovely couple - your mom and dad!

Poems For Parent's Anniversary

Poem 1
Love and marriage
has been a long and difficult road.
Faith has been your carriage,
God has lightened your load.
Together you have progressed
to your eighteenth year,
with the words of God
whispering in your ear.
Your one life together
has you both united,
but the joys to come
have just been sighted.
I love you both
for being young at heart
and making an oath
never to depart.
You belong
side by side,
your passion strong
with nothing to hide.
God bless you two,
Mom and Dad.
(Heather Dossey)

Poem 2
This special anniversary wish
That comes with love to you
Brings warm and heartfelt thanks
For all the thoughtful things you do
It also comes to let you know
You both mean more each day
To everyone your lives have touched
In such a loving way.

Poem 3
How fortunate we are today
As we take the opportunity to say...
Privileged we are to share yet another year all together
Proud of our wonderful parents - may your love last forever
You faced your challenges... yet gave up... never
Always striving towards mutual respect and understanding
Now we see the secret to a marriage based on giving, not only demanding
Not yours was the example to undermine and scorn
Instead into love and kindness we were born
Vehemently you have held onto your marriage
Ever determined to stay together through time and its passage
Resolute and purposeful you have led by example
Shown us all the way to a marriage incredible
And so, Mom and Dad, we need to share
Resounding Happy Anniversary for your love and care
Yours is indeed a marriage quite rare

Poem 4
We simply take for granted,
From day to passing day,

Each sacrifice they make for us
In their own loving way.

But then we grow and finally learn,
The way that children do,

How much their love has really meant,
How thoughtful they've been, too

And so this comes with all the thanks
You both deserve and more.

For there aren't two dearer parents
Than the one this card's for
(Authorunknown)

Poem 5
When I was young, MOM and DAD,
I remember saying that I would never leave your side,
Now I have grown and see the love you two share.
I now realize that's the way life is.
I have learned so much from you two,
I pleasure every moment I am with you.
God gave me a blessing,
For having two loving parents as great and loving as you.
You two are great and I am so proud or your 19th year together!
I love you both so much,
And I hope for so many years for you two together.;
For the parents, I so dearly love.
(Kara Wambach)
