The Wedding

Missing image

This is the day, this is the moment

She has dreamed of all her life

The day she marries the man she loves

When they become husband and wife


They look ahead to a lifetime of joy

Many years of wedded bliss

Not a cloud in the sky nor tear in the eye

Can ever alter this


She takes her place there by his side

As they stand at the altar rail

Exchanging vows and bands of gold

Sneaking glimpses through her veil


The love they feel is felt by all

Who witness them with pride

As they turn to face their families

With a light now shining inside


After the ceremony is over

When the confetti has gone

A man and woman once alone

Are now united as one


Author notes

I saw this picture and wanted to write something which might do it justice...I think the bride looks so lovely and yes I know she is a model..but shes a woman too...maybe I captured a part of her dream?...

    Definitely captured her dream, better than anyone else could have done, I must say. Your rhyme scheme is brilliant, and excellent word choice. Creates wonderful imagery. Awesome work.

    Great

    This is cool,I think you captured the true feelings of standing at the altar with the one you will become one with. My Oldest brother gets married on Saturday, I am sure this is how they will feel. Great write.

    romantic as hell

    OH you big old softy, hahaha This was a beautiful poem, and I agree you are the last hopeless romantic I know. You have such a way with words, if only every man could be that romantic at heart we would have no need for war.
    Love you my friend
