The Tenor Of Our Anniversary
My husband Mark and I had a wonderful time celebrating our 32nd wedding anniversary on Friday, June 4th in Manhattan. We saw a Broadway play — Ken Ludwig’s hilarious Lend Me A Tenor, which was directed by Stanley Tucci. (There’s more about the play in my two-verse limerick.) We also dined at Nocello and enjoyed attempting to dance the rumba at the Marriott Marquis’ Broadway Lounge.
And now, my limerick:
The Tenor Of Our Anniversary
By Madeleine Begun Kane
Hubby Mark and I partied last night.
(It’s been thirty-two years of delight.)
Saw a great Broadway play.
What a heavenly way
To celebrate marriage just right!
Shaloub and LaPaglia star.
(Both are Tony’s — you know who they are.)
Justin Bartha stars too.
We kept laughing on cue
At Lend Me A Tenor. Har, har!

Happy Anniversary to you and Mark, Mad! You two have Rick and me beat by four years.
What a wonderful limerick for a great celebration! (we hit 32 two months ago- I’ll bet, like me, you got married at age 10! ;-)
When you reach 3 decennials plus two
It’s certain perennials for you.
For the rest of your life
Same hubby, same wife?
So much more than the rest of us do.
Congrats!
LOL! And thanks so much, Joyce, Debby and Elwin. Fun limerick, Elwin. And congrats back to you Debby. And to Joyce — 28 years ain’t exactly chopped liver. :)
