Notes About The Poem

on a wedding day

On a Wedding Day

Walking down the aisle
While sweet music softly plays
Feels like on the clouds
With my pure white wedding gown 
And my hands with fresh bouquet

We take solemn vow
On sunny or stormy days
Whatever  happens
Together without a fear
We embrace our future aims

In a new sunrise
We lovingly look forward
Sprinkled with blessings
We’ll bind together with love
Love- forever from above

I admire the fearless approach in your wedding dream Leonora - fear of the future should not intrude on fresh love - I also like how you give respect to Providence - J.A.B. %
