5539 Our Wedding Day 19 July 2006 Was there ever to be such a day that day we will call our wedding day As hands clasped and hearts exchanged given all of what had been in moments estranged This love across the stars all the way to the moon and back Where happiness was all of hope and another moment held in prayer This love for her, that love insight OK, finally made alright in ways to give Sure it was in fairness to reach for the sun in knowing finally beside him, she was there Was there ever to be such a day this day they would call our wedding day Husband and wife, man and woman in love a day to remember in sending thanks to the moon above “And ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their lord, when he will return from the wedding; that when he cometh and knocketh, they may open unto him immediately.” Luke 12: 36 KJV © 2006 Christopher W Herbert (a New Zealand Poet) a poet who cares |

"Was there ever to be such a day this day they would call our wedding day Husband and wife, man and woman in love a day to remember in sending thanks to the moon above" A wonderful penning Christopher! Just remember my friend~ Reach for the moon, if you miss it.. you'll still land amongst the stars. Very much enjoyed the read. For it was not into my ear you whispered |

The amazing part about this poem to me, even as the writer, was I did not realize the pattern I had set myself, in the case of the "This" and the "Was". And that was never intentional, the poem just wrote itself that way, and only when I posted this on pip, did I see what I saw within my own words. While Nancy, the moon has become an interesting theme for me these past few weeks, and that was not even from my own original idea, but another heart in far off Canada When Nancy, I look at your kind comment and find they relate to close to this poem I composed before you even got to read the above poem /pip/Forum95/HTML/001792.html a poet who cares |

My birthday was on July 6 and I have a good friend on line from Ohio. Such are those coincidences Heather, because my mother's name is Heather as well. and July 6 marked another day in the one year anniversary of knowing my friend from Ohio for one year. When her and I have a great friendship. a poet who cares |
