February Not to be Forgotten 

February in our house 

will never be forgotten 

Misses and I were married  

the twenty-fourth of this month 

Church Bells rang we were dressed up 

Dressed fit to kill or marry 

We repeated our vows way back 

Back in time long fifty years 

The preacher was old fashioned 

Surprise vow he inserted 

Vow shocking the new Misses 

Said "Love, honor and OBEY 

We'll say those vows soon again 

Gone will be the OBEY part 

We'll have an important part 

Second honeymoon comes next

and our Marriage Vows immediately came to mind.  I have been teasingly asking Mrs. Jim for us renew our vows, quite often with the Morning Kiss.  Her reply, I don't need to renew mine, I haven't done anything bad that calls for this."   Finally, we will probably do this.  Maybe a Cruise ship or at San Antonio where our first honeymoon was.
