Words For the Bride and Groom

Vows have been spoken, the promises made, God has warned that no one may sever. The future is rosy, the foundation laid. You have your sweet dreams of forever and ever. Mother must give up first rights to her son. Father has turned over his daughter. Everyone prays that he is the right one And that she heeds all her mother has taught her. Dear Bride and Groom, a bright future is yours, If you always remember to put your mate first. Whether the sun shines or whether it pours You'll double the best and by half cut the worst. Some strive for riches and some strive for fame, You'll travel onward toward your goals together. Your treasure's the one who is sharing your name, The one who is faithful no matter the weather. For Dr. Mehta's contest Honoring the Bride and Groom.

So many marriages are doomed to failure because people put their own interests first. Unions only last when both parties are committed to making each other happy. Before young folks get married, I wish they could read this wise poem. I predict first place! Love, Carolyn
