A Wedding Proposal
Walk beside me and be my wife,
Enjoy with me this beauty we call life.
My heart glows with happiness when you are near.
I want to be with you forever, my dear.
I tremble at your every touch,
This is because I love you so much.
If there was only one wish I could have today,
It would be to feel this way each and every day.
The sound of your voice fills my heart.
Is there nothing that can keep us apart?
Yesterday is just a dream, our future yet to express.
Let us share this life with our same name and address.
I hope you always say yes!
Edward J. Ebbs - January 2007
Bride To Be
Oh sweet bride to be
as the flowers bloom
you snuck to my room
in hopes of a lustful spoon
Groom anxiously awaits
as your father opens the front gates
No one will comprehend our fate
Face to face we engage
Stockings, undergarments and satin lace
on the floor they lay
We embrace and grind away
Passion
Three
small words
brought us close;
unified with
two.

Wedding Bells
Wedding bells rings
With all my kith and kin
Where is my engagement ring?
Oh! It dropped in the bin.
Oh!dear don't fear
They loves me lot
We will wear new clothes
We will look fabulous both
Lightning is everywhere
Bang bang goes in the air
It seems as I m
In some fair
With dancing guest
I can't take rest
Garland heavy moving on my chest
They all are doing best
I m in wrath
You should hold your breath
Don't waste my time
Eat and enjoy
Then say gud bye .
Put On the Ring
How did I find such a man as this?
How can we share such happiness?
Of course I said yes, I put on the ring
Excited, elated, of what the world will bring
But more than the wedding- the frills and the lace
It's to be forever within his tender embrace

My passion is poetry,
To write is my special gift- created or imagined;
Know marriage is not a laughing matter ,
Wedding is not a joke , for it can generate great laughter.
It is the crux of a life of beauty;
It is the quiet sounds of fulfillment.
Promises
Promises
Emotions that I could not know
Now fill me up until I'm whole
A feeling so intangible
Your beauty pierces through my soul
Your smile grips my beating heart
To your tender touch I fall apart,
To the one whom I love
Your happiness I put above
Above my own and any other
Never subject to another
But should our fate force us to part
I'll hold you deep within my heart
And keep my love for you inside
Until my body and soul divide
Five
Five sisters. Each as pretty as the other.
Their names are Summer, Autumn, Winter, Spring
and nameless. Whom to choose from them? I’d rather…
Five sisters! Each as pretty as the other!
I’d rather seek the blessing of their mother
to put on nameless this engagement ring.
Five sisters. Each as pretty as the other.
Their names are Summer, Autumn, Winter, Spring.
* Ring finger is called nameless finger in Russian.

An engagement ring
Reason to sing

Passion's quicksand
Soon afterward ~
Romance interred
Rum's Remorse
I stand in front
Of a mirror and cringe
My body is bare
I went on a binge
Did I bare my heart?
Did I give away the ring?
My wedding is ruined
The ring is missing!
The drinks I’ve had
All took a strange course
It was just a drink
That became rum’s remorse
