Weddings Valley

The fountains

The fountains mingle with the river
And the rivers with the ocean,
The winds of heaven mix for ever
With a sweet emotion;
Nothing in the world is single,
All things by a law divine
In one another’s being mingle -
Why not I with thine?

See the mountains kiss high heaven
And the waves clasp one another;
No sister-flower would be forgiven
If it disdain’d its brother:
And the sunlight clasps the earth,
And the moonbeams kiss the sea -
What are all these kissings worth,
If thou kiss not me?

Words on Feeling Safe

Oh the comfort of feeling safe
with a person;
having neither to weigh thoughts,
nor measure words,
but to pour them all out
just as chaff and grain together,
knowing that a faithful hand
will take and sift them,
keeping what is worth keeping
and with a breath of kindness,
blow the rest away.

For The Bride And Groom

Two hands to hold onto forever,
Two arms to be embraced by eternally,
Two eyes to gaze into for always,
Two lips to kiss so passionately.

Two souls fused by commitment,
Two names written in the stars above,
Two lives intertwined by God,
Two hearts joined by the purest of love.

Lord, help us to remember when we first met
And the strong love that grew between us.
Help us to work that love into practical things
So nothing can divide us.

We ask for words both kind and loving,
And for hearts always ready to ask forgiveness,
As well as to forgive.
Dear Lord, we put our marriage into Your hands.

An Angel’s Wedding

Vows to take, and prayers to say
On that their blessed wedding day
The dream has been seen, and fantasies thought.
And the angels dress already bought.

Her little girl fantasy will come to life
When the two come together as man and wife.
That day the church will be filled with stars,
Coming from galaxies both near and far.

Tears will shed when exchanging the rings.
And kissing when on glasses there are clings.
She’ll look gorgeous before him in a gown of white
‘Cause an angel is such a wondrous sight.

They’ll dance on the softest clouds of gold
And begin the promise to have and to hold.
We’ll remember her veil, and the long matching train
And know how she looked when taking his name.

That day will be filled with joy and with love
And heaven sent blessings from god up above.
Sadly the day must come to an end.
But the angel now has a lover and friend.

If you think the story I tell is not true
Believe that it is. The next angel is you.

When You Look At Me

When You Look At Me
When you look at me my heart melts
Your eyes smile and twinkle with love
With just a look you say I love you
With just a smile you say you’ll always be there
My eyes mist with tears, my heart aches with love
I reach for you, you reach for me
With a look alone our hearts entwine
Forever in love, yours and mine

She Walks In Beauty

She walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that’s best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes:
Thus mellow’d to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies.

One shade the more, one ray the less,
Had half impair’d the nameless grace
Which waves in every raven tress,
Or softly lightens o’er her face;
Where thoughts serenely sweet express
How pure, how dear their dwelling-place.

And on that cheek, and o’er that brow,
So soft, so calm, yet eloquent,
The smiles that win, the tints that glow,
But tell of days in goodness spent,
A mind at peace with all below,
A heart whose love is innocent!

Submitted by Lord Byron.

Beautiful Eyes

Beautiful eyes of oceans and skies
glorious crown of golden honey wheat
alabaster’s gentle caress
yet I crackle like lightning
and tremble like thunder.

I want to feel your body pressed against my back
and your arms around me while I rest;
to smell your skin, feel your honey wheat hair against the back of my neck;
hear your sunny voice telling me of your endless boundless timeless love.

I know we can’t spend every minute of every day together,
but I still dream about never being away from you for an instant.
Can you imagine living on our own tropical island,
bathing in a fresh water stream,
sleeping under the stars,
sharing a lunch of fish and fruit and fresh clear water,
and then napping for a while;
what a life it would be,
just the two of us in love forever.

Sonnet 116

Let me not to the marriage of true minds
Admit impediments; love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove:
O, no, it is an ever-fixèd mark,
That looks on tempests and is never shaken;
It is the star to every wand’ring bark,
Whose worth’s unknown, although his heighth be taken.
Love’s not Time’s fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickle’s compass come;
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
But bears it out even to the edge of doom.
If this be error and upon me proved,
I never writ, nor no man ever loved.

Submitted by William Shakespeare.

I’m Going To Miss Him

Best wishes, cheers, hugs and kisses
spread throughout the room
as family and friends gather
to congratulate the bride and groom

he proudly stands next to her
with stars in his eyes
they looks so happy, so in love
it makes me want to cry

childhood memories surface
blurring my vision
as I watch them both
walking down the aisle

I can’t help but feel
sadness overwhelm my soul
seems it was just yesterday
when we were ten years old

playing tag on the merry go round
nobody ever said we’d grow up so fast
but somehow, we wound away the years
making memories to last

you know, its funny
how life takes you by surprise
I never thought this day would come
when I’d have to say goodbye
