Poem

On this very special day
So began the rest of your life.
One of you became a Husband
The other became a Wife.
Some say marriage is an institution;
But really it is an art,
It began this day with the vows you made
Not just spoken but committed from the heart.....
To love and honour one another;
By being ready to give and take,
To show tolerance,understanding maybe forgiveness
So the marriage bond will never break.
To be there for each other,
To encourage-to instil pride,
To comfort,care,show compassion
And always stand by each other’s side.
To be aware of each other,
Satisfy each other’s needs,
To communicate from the mind and heart
With kind words and loving deeds.
To like each other,
Value each other’s worth-
Because as well as your lover your partner
Should be your best friend on earth.....
Marriage is what you both make it;
A prison sentence with a ball and chain
Where you feel bound with loss of personal identity
Or a togetherness that will always remain,
With a sense of belonging to someone
And yet still feeling free.
A true marriage is really beautiful
The nearest thing to Divine Love that there could be.....
And so now both of you
Having taken this major step in life,
May you live,prosper and LOVE each other
In continued happiness as HUSBAND and WIFE.




I wrote this for my son and daughter-in-law’s wedding.I have adapted it because for them it was more personal,dates names etc.I also had the privilege of reading it to them in church. They have been happily married now for twenty one years.
