Darling, I’ve thought about our day at least a billion times,
and as I look back once more the view seems so surreal-
Distant clouds disperse to a day when roses; red as
beaujolais and tender baby’s-breath
whispered silent blessings over shaky hands.
Oblivious to family and friends gathered on makeshift
pews gazing curiously ahead. Were they even there?
No lull of a gently churning sea, just two voices
breathless – quivering, and March’s feathered tendrils
never brushed our skin, only two beating hearts
strummed by the master’s bow touched
our consciousness’.
Your offered heart lay bare, mesmerized my soul
and in answer to your plea - destiny’s rainbow sprang
forth from golden smiles borne on wings of faith,
on shores of overwhelming joy and never-ending
tomorrows- Changing horizon's pewter cast
into kaleidoscopic fantasy.
Reverent prayers exchanged singular moments
for infinity set in platinum- tenderly tasting utopia’s
nectar, lost in your charms- encircled within your arms,
and all the rest, if there was something more
was faded compared to your brilliance-
Blurry and unimportant-
as a black and white memory.

This was absolutely beautiful. Very different than anything else I've read in the contest so far. There were so many aspects to the poem that I felt like were almost written for me. This is definitely a favourite of mine; thanks for entering! :]

Such memories vaulted inside these words ...
and the lovely phrasings become layered from meaning to feeling, until the core of own echo holds its trembling sound ... Well written and so inspiring.
Love
