Wedding Haikus

Dawn comes swiftly Eyes shocked awake; Sunlight dazzles Weary body Sleep does not come; Rest fatigue hijacks Another day dawns Celebrate now; Tomorrow looks vague Overtime work Pulse of earthly stuff; Promises to keep Old friend calls Buzz of change; Friendly reminder Family reunion Marriage festival; Customary rites Good earth moments Vivid affairs rush; Keep busy tempo Giant moths cluster July permutates; Nature nurtures By this footpath Fallen sparrow quivering; Death comes to call Wedding car radiant Speeding highway tryst; Bridal entourage Chinese wedding Customary rites; Family comes first Wedding banquet Six-star happening; Memorable feasting Family and friends Gather to witness; Matrimonial highlights Wonder in portraits Smiles in sure style; Joy wears a happy face Now cheek to cheek Face to face as one; Witness two loving souls Bride and groom Kneel to parents; Tea ceremony ritual A magic moment A newly wed couple; Promises to deliver Beauty in your eyes A lifetime awaits; Just the two of us By this promenade Photo snapshots frozen; Time stands still forever Colour photography Momentary still life; Prying eyes partake Still life observed Notice the topic; Witness the union Listen now Two hearts beating; One harmonious whole A simple toast To bride and groom; Linger with lovely dreams Father and mother Smiles of calm content; Son grown-up and wedded Our children remain Our children even after Marriage turns a chapter Father and mother Feelings of satisfaction; Daughter waltzing happy today Joy in sure season Marriage succeeds; Joy yields meaning When all is done Change will show up; New is the IN thing Festival over New couple journey; Two-gather as one family Leon Enriquez 21 July 2014 Singapore
