Ruth & Rodger

they, not looking, nor seeking
saw love come in, shyly peeking
and experience said "be still my heart"
and soon comes their day to never part…

she has gifts of literary compassion
to share them well is her fashion
so I guess he must be a giving man
for only givers can find a love so grand

if I may gift a prayer on you
that the Sun shine upon your day
that the heavens open up in song
and speed you lovingly on your way

to a new life, new hopes, new dreams
and God keep you safely in his scheme.

God Bless you both
on your wedding day

What a beautiful gift......this is one that will add history to it each and every day.  Wonderfully written from you pen.

If you find yourself stranded in a storm
...then reach for my hand and we will play in the puddles together

Sunshine,

Excellent gift of poetry here.  Very nicely written.  May Ruth and Rodger be happy together for many years to come!!!

Ruth - You've gone through much and you've come so far...

I wish you both every happiness in the world..
God Bless..

Karilea - This is a wonderful tribute to our hoot...


Waft every crest upon your destined sea.
Embrace the Wave of Serendipity,
Lest its elusive arcane ecstasy
Refurl with sail for all eternity.

Oh...I miss so much in passions anymore. Thank you for making sure I didn't miss this one  
Sunshine....what can I say? Thank you for the beautiful gift you've presented Rodger and I through your words. This means so much to me that you took the time to write this for us.
Everyone...you are all like family to me and I wish you all could be there to share this special day with us...know I will carry each and everyone of you with me in my heart on Saturday. I just want to say thank you for all the love and support you've shown me during some very trying times in my life...without the support and confidance you've given me, I don't think Saturday would have been possible...thank you all.
Love and hugs  
Ruth
