...And now the plans have come together,
Preparations finalized.
Every deadline met its match;
Every detail, its condition.
The crowd of friends
And fond relations, fanning in anticipation,
Waiting to be entertained
By ceremony and tradition.
Dirges played on organ, though
You wish they'd choose a happy tune
To celebrate the grand occasion.
Solemnity is such a bore.
You snap the children to attention
Whose fidgeting becomes obsessive,
Give a nudge to Grandpa just
Before his wheeze becomes a snore.
Now all the waiting's over as
The wedding march fills up the air.
All rise to view the party as the
Toothy smiles grow ear to ear.
The nervous groom mysteriously appears
And waits before the altar
As father fills his chest with pride
And mom fights back a single tear.
And now a vision dressed in white
Floats softly down her aisle of dreams
To seek a hand filled with her own
And make a vow to never part.
Two people who have found each other...
Two lives which now reside as one...
Two into one: a solemn promise.
Two souls together of one heart.
