Although it may very well be a torch that guides your way towards the portals of light It is certainly your horizon that the dark clouds of fate will often attempt to obscure Much like the morning star is dependent upon the onset of dawn over each skyline afar It is the shadows of deception you will choose to leave behind that become the beacons of hope to brighten the paths you endure Bide not your time together staring deeply into the sun only to make yourselves blind to all of the majestic beauty existent within the infinite sky As you walk along side the shore on the pond of elegant memories let not the droplets of tears ripple the crystal reflections when time comes for you to cry To open wide your minds to life extending your bounds from the past it is only then you will realize that marriage really has given you the eyes to see and the wings to fly Staring into the sun just makes you blind to what beauty actually exists in the sky. |

Thanx Noah, I really appreciate your kind words and willingness to accept me into your heart as part of a family. I actually wrote this for my aunt in New Mexico that is marrying in October and asked me to write a poem for her and her Fiancee. I think she will like it since it is not overly mushy or anything. Staring into the sun just makes you blind to what beauty actually exists in the sky. |

Thank you temptress, you are such a sweetheart and have such a heart of gold, you all have great hearts and I really enjoy posting my poems here. I feel like I have a family here, and thanx for welcoming me into yours. Staring into the sun just makes you blind to what beauty actually exists in the sky. |

nice!! although i still believe in the commitment even though it has been a joke to me, i must tell you the difference between a wedding and a funeral is one less drunk, and i laugh as i say that reading your lovely words knowing that somehow, somewhere, some time when you least expect it, somebody will walk up to you and say SMILE!there's nothing candid about this!! we've got the whole frigging scenario on film!!!! better pretend yer happy!! teehee *grin and allthat rot watch out!!! i might throw the bouquet, too... just ask my wife, kathie, she'll tell you all about it it was a heckuva scene in 19whatever... back in the day.... |
