Wedding Day Sonnet

They seemed a perfect pairing from the start,
Two minds alike (both quirky, slightly strange..)
It wasn’t long before he stole her heart,
Or she stole his – regardless, soon life changed.

No longer did they talk of ‘I’ but ‘we’
And single-life felt like the distant past.
They shared their ups, their downs, their grief, their glee,
The list of special moments shared grew vast.

Before too long came time to say ‘I do’
And share their love with family and friends,
Who shed a tear at whispered ‘I love you’s,
And witnessed love – the type that never ends.

With love our friends, on this, your wedding day.
May love and laughter always pave your way.

[For Naomi & Neil who’ll tie the knot this Saturday]
