Walk of Life

Preparations have been made
Over a year of long glorious planning
Flowers, tux and food have been picked
A long lovely, flowing beaded gown, a real southern belle

Organ piping the bridal march, 
Glowing bride and nervous groom oblivious
Forever bound into the marrital
Walk of life. Presenting to you
Life long mates. Hands clutched,
smiles wide, hearts full, expecting the best to come!

For the Walk to remember contest

A wedding march is certainly a walk to remember, exactly what this contest called for. Also an important walk in life, as your title depicted. One not to be taken lightly,nor enter into with reserve. For a marriage not based on purity of love has failure as it future, unless a miracle is provided of God. Thank you so much for your most gracious comments. Sincerely, Love Moses
