Midnight Wedding

Black velvet sky with diamonds aglow, Nature's serenade surrounds. A gossamer breeze begins to blow, Embracing young lovers around; Their feet scarcely touching the ground. The fragrance of love was in the air, The language was being spoken. Each soft caress, the kiss that they shared, Became a treasured token; Let not their bond be broken. Young they were and full of dreams, Dreams of a life together. They spoke their vows 'neath moonlight streams, Pledging their love forever; Their hearts' most joyous endeavor. 12/8/2011 For Francine Roberts' English Quintain contest 3rd place For PD's 3rd Place winner only contest 7th place

Kim, this is the most romantic quintain..love the image of a jewelry box with black velvet and diamonds all aglow! It does lull me towards the sky to see all this beauty. Then there's the gossamer breeze that is so virginesque and new...their feet barely touching the ground...phew! This is excellence, Kim. Saving as a new fav. The complete opposite of my wedding day!! ha ha. shhhh, don't tell anyone tho. ha ha. Gwendolen
