Happy Married Life

Rejoice and shout with laughter Throw away any contrary matter For marriage is a life promise And wedding is done just once Since God has been so gracious To let you witness this bliss With his grace and in his pleasure To day shall ever be a treasure Marriage is a life contract Of time of laughter and of the rest With his love and in his pleasure Today shall always be a treasure Rejoice and shout with laughter Throw away any contrary matter For wedding is done just once With you, family, friends and I rejoice To Iyabode. 29th July 2017. is her wedding day. For The Creative Collective Anthology Series - Poetry Contest. Sponsored by Geraldine Taylor. 28 July, 2017.

Lol! I didn't even get the chance to read it to the couple's hearing. I made it a present. It's part of the gifts given to her. Thank you Connie for the great comment.
