Just For You Poetry

O! Wedding day, that blessed day
where hope and love reside;
The groom awaits, awaits his turn
to claim the radiant bride.

Their time has come, love wins again,
perhaps the angels sing.
This sacred ritual, when fulfilled,
becomes a moving thing.

As all await. a hush descends,
commitment fills the air;
Our hopes and fears, our smiles and tears
attend this loving pair.

Today, this couple take the vows
that unifies their love;
May all the wondrous powers that be,
send blessings from above.

Read at my son's wedding, at their request, many years ago

Your son must have felt so proud and special at your reading this lovely poem written just for him and his bride..just beautiful Joseph..

Your son must have been so proud of you reading this on his wedding day. I am sure all the guests really enjoyed the significance of your carefully and beautifully chosen words Joseph.

Lovely dedication to one of life's most moving and important events. Beautifully done.

I loved the repeated use of 'awaits, awaits' - very humorous and apt to describe the grooms nerves.

"Our hopes and fears, our smiles and tears
attend this loving pair." - you captured the entire congregations thoughts in these two eloquent lines Joseph. Well penned dear poet. Im sure there wasnt a heart that didnt skip a beat when you read this aloud.

Superbly satisfying poem - it is all it should be to grace such a special day as this for your dear son. Has grace and elegance, reverence and warmth. A real winner!
