The Bride To Her Future Groom

You are the spirit of my soul,
the rainbow that watches over me.
The daylight pales when compared to
the warmth of your beautiful smile
which fills my heart with your tenderness
and the joy that you bring to me.

With our union let this beginning
bring a new and brilliant light
that I will shine for you if dusk 
should fall and guide our way as we
embark, as one, on this, our life’s 
most grand and playful adventure.

I see in you my all, for the world 
is but loneliness without you.
With my hand in yours let our love 
bind us with joy, as we, together, 
watch our future unfold before us, 
loving each other more deeply each day.
