The Day Of

Rising from bed wedding bells start to ring in your head
your heart will smile though your a little nervous inside

  The hour is near with one finale look in the mirror
will make you some what nervous and shy

  Your ladies of glory who will stand by your side
will give you ups and downs making you sometimes cry

  Your sister of years who you have always held so dear
will make you cry as she tries to answer with a smile

  She will lift your gown on your long walk of pride
you will both shiver and smile

  At the door will stand your father who has given support to only let you deport
will make you both sob and cry

  Your mother will rise as you glide down the isle 
your eyes will lock in a soft whisper you both will cry

  Your husband to be at the alter he will plead 
will make you take a deep breath for the future you will see

  When you read or repeat the pastors words as he reads
you will both smile and cry

  The final words to be spoken "You now may kiss the bride"
will make you both smile as you flee down the isle

  Later in a quite place
  the bride and grooms eyes will meet
  with the only sound of two lovers heartbeat
  you will smile and in a sigh say,
"Our life is so divine," as it's sealed with a kiss our life will always shine!

T Reams copyright 9/17/15 Dedicated to my sweet niece Lauren a bride to be.
