White Dress
She wore a nice white dress
But not a bridal gown
She had no shoes upon her feet
The most beautiful girl around
She had dried flowers in her hair
Her face was done just so
I look at her and my heart melts
My love for her still grows
She stood there right in front of me
And smiled as she did gaze
Into my eyes her target was
I hoped it’d last for days
I did not wear a suit for this
It does not fit my style
She knows I’m not a preppy boy
I’ve been with her a while
We stood in front of all our friends
Our families had shown up too
They all waited for us to say
My dearest I love you
That day we wed and I must say
My dreams have all come true
You’re everything a man could want
And times that all by two
We’re quite the pair yes you and I
As different as they come
Sometimes you’re a southern belle
And I am a hippie bum
We’ll stun the world and show them why
Loves wins out every time
Cause in the end our love does make
Us two of the same kind
We’ve shared that love for many years
It’s been the best I’ve ever seen
I’m not quite sure what else she is
But I’m sure my wife’s the queen

To have dried flowers upon ones head
wearing a soft gown of near white
barefoot and holding your hand
no suit or tux is needed, just love for two to share
Now that is the best of love, and it sounds like a ren faire
kind of marriage, or even an wiccan handfasting
Congratulations on the one silver
but to me, this is pure gold

This is so sweet. I am sure that this poem made your wife's day. I really like the way the poem was laid out, not just the flow of the owrds but also the representation. Very well done.

Oh this is just too wonderful. The story is great and so is the rhyme. Lots to go, but this is certainly in contention right now. Thank you for entering.
