'For Your Seventh Anniversary'

For your anniversary
a footling sum I spent,
I bought a gift and silly card,
and now they have been sent,

but on that bubble wrap you touch,
I poured a potent philter,
brewed to make you love the more
when all has gone a-kilter!

but spells and hexes, charms and such,
however well intended,
and secret potions made for you,
though cleverly their blended,
can't do what each of you must do
so you won't be up-ended.

Love and Best Wishes,
-Dad
