On Your Wedding Day

Congratulations, Jack and Jill, your wedding day is here The time has come to have and hold the one that you call dear The love you share between you is both timeless and sincere Your future will be full of joy and loved ones far and near The pleasure of a tender start is how the heart is led For love is not the words you say but how the words are said The wedding vows you make this day are never made in bed For true romance is gently born when passion fades instead There may be days when you believe that love is an illusion Your journey through the haze of love may leave you in confusion But if you serve each other more you may reach this conclusion That service is the key to love and hate is the delusion True love is found in giving with no thought of I or me And measured by your sacrifice and generosity The purest form of living is to love unselfishly For through the ones we came to love is who we come to be Today two hearts will join as one in sacred resolution To overcome your challenges with love as your solution But what you leave your children is your greatest contribution A legacy of love for which there is no substitution.
