Another break from political poetry (although some may take issue with that) . My wife and I attended the wedding of my niece-once-removed on Sunday. It was lovely. Earlier, the bride and groom to be asked if I would write their wedding poem. I said that I would be honored. I thought that you might enjoy it as another change of pace. It is an acrostic.
Dear A… and C…
Matrimony isn’t for the faint of heart
A sapling couple weathering the storms of life
Two kindred spirits joined, their married life to start
Returning each the other’s love as husband, wife
Indelible the marriage bonds uniting you
May all your plans and expectations be fulfilled
Our prayer: God’s blessing on this sacred marriage too
No matter what’s the future love will conquer still
You’ll always know that friends and family will be there
