I Married My Flower Girl

This may sound a little bizarre But listen to my tale of love A tale so rare, so tender, so sweet Transcends all others above Way back in nineteen-fifty-seven Sweet Linda and I were married Our flower girl was her eight year old sister A bouquet of roses she carried Linda and I enjoyed many great years Till tragedy struck in ninety-eight Contracting a very rare form of cancer A disease that sealed her fate Sadly she passed away early next year Losing her courageous fight Gave her blessing to our flower girl and me Her dying wish... we would unite Never guessing two years down the road Our lives would again collide Flower girl Cathie so demure and sweet Walked down the aisle as my bride @Jack Ellison 2012
