We Were Wed
At precisely nine seventeen pm
forty-five short years ago, we were wed.
And to me, it's just as if it were yesterday
it's all still so fresh in my mind.
I was so nervous; I fainted,
falling flat on my face!
And I awoke to the vision of an angel
dressed in the purest white,
sweetly smiling down on me.
I recall the preacher was ready to panic,
then suddenly, I was aware it was you.
Our lips met, we laughed,
and I stumbled to my feet
embarrassed but unharmed.
I will never forget the exact moment
that you said I do,
for at precisely nine seventeen pm,
we were wed!
