Kelsea Ballerini and her singer-songwriter husband, Morgan Evans, recently celebrated four years of marriage.

To mark their anniversary, Ballerini shared a loving snapshot of the two with a few words: "You are etched into me / A heart carved on a tree / permanent."

It makes sense that the singer would want to share her feelings through rhyme -- this year, she dove into the world of poetry, temporarily trading her guitar for pen and ink to release her new collection of poems, "Feel Your Way Through." In the book, she explores themes of body image, relationships, personal growth, family dynamics and more.

Morgan shared the same snap on his Instagram, with an equally heartfelt -- if not quite as poetic -- caption.

"Happy Anniversary baaaaaabe!!! 4 years on this crazy, beautiful, winding road together...and I wouldn't wanna be riding it with anybody else! I love you," he wrote.
