Really a simple wedding.. I have experienced a lot of these during the lockdown, the colours, flamboyance, show-offs, gifts, displays were gone.. Only the couple and simple flower bouquet. What a lovely poem.

Jan-Thank you for reminding us what is really important beyond the fact that we have been complaining about going back to work with ugly masks on!

Although forget-me-knots are more common, your version is perfect for the American Father's Day! Aloha! Rico

Although mine have flown the nest they often return, Hopefully lockdown restrictions will soon be lifted. Tom
