The Fairy Tale Wedding of Prince William and Sandra


     Married life ahead
          Future wonders and unknowns
                To forever share

Enchanting was the view of bride and groom,
  with bridesmaids, lovely in their pastel gowns
of varied colors, maid of honor, too;
   ring bearer, flower girl, each six years old,
best man, four ushers in the wedding group.
   So special were Marines in fine dress blues,
who stood and made a saber-arch for them
   as they descended steps of their old church...
Newburgh, New York, in Nineteen-Fifty Eight.
 
Their wedding celebration was a feast
   for family and many friends who came.
Good food and music made a happy time,
   as they all danced and shared the joyous day.
They cut the cake with a Marine Corps sword,
   a cake, three layers, each on pillars graced
with pretty swans and cherubs placed around...
   then gently fed each other one small piece,
and came together with a sweetened kiss.
  
That evening, they began their journey 'home',
   nine-hundred miles away to the Corps base,
to start a brand new life...husband and wife.
   At only age eighteen, how brave she was
to leave her family and friends behind.
   But love provides a courage unforeseen
with needs to be beside the one you love...
   June, Nineteen Fifty-Eight...and still today...
wed sixty years, this June, Twenty-Eighteen.
