Alright class, settle down, letโs take a peek,
At a word today โ it's "anniversary," sleek!
The dictionary gives us a helpful clue,
"A day that marks time, honest and true."
Think about this: a special date you see,
Exactly how many years have passed for thee?
Like a wedding day, or a birthโs sweet start,
It's measured in years, right from the heart!
โOrdinal numberโ tells us just the score โ
First anniversary? Or fifth, and more!
So "anniversary" means a yearly sign,
Of something important, truly divine.
Does that make sense to you all today?
