Wedding Haikus

Dawn comes swiftly
Eyes shocked awake;
Sunlight dazzles


Weary body
Sleep does not come;
Rest fatigue hijacks


Another day dawns
Celebrate now;
Tomorrow looks vague


Overtime work
Pulse of earthly stuff;
Promises to keep


Old friend calls
Buzz of change;
Friendly reminder


Family reunion
Marriage festival;
Customary rites


Good earth moments
Vivid affairs rush;
Keep busy tempo


Giant moths cluster
July permutates;
Nature nurtures


By this footpath
Fallen sparrow quivering;
Death comes to call


Wedding car radiant
Speeding highway tryst;
Bridal entourage


Chinese wedding
Customary rites;
Family comes first


Wedding banquet
Six-star happening;
Memorable feasting


Family and friends
Gather to witness;
Matrimonial highlights


Wonder in portraits
Smiles in sure style;
Joy wears a happy face


Now cheek to cheek
Face to face as one;
Witness two loving souls


Bride and groom
Kneel to parents;
Tea ceremony ritual


A magic moment
A newly wed couple;
Promises to deliver


Beauty in your eyes
A lifetime awaits;
Just the two of us


By this promenade
Photo snapshots frozen;
Time stands still forever


Colour photography
Momentary still life;
Prying eyes partake


Still life observed
Notice the topic;
Witness the union


Listen now
Two hearts beating;
One harmonious whole


A simple toast
To bride and groom;
Linger with lovely dreams


Father and mother
Smiles of calm content;
Son grown-up and wedded


Our children remain
Our children even after
Marriage turns a chapter


Father and mother
Feelings of satisfaction;
Daughter waltzing happy today


Joy in sure season
Marriage succeeds;
Joy yields meaning


When all is done
Change will show up;
New is the IN thing


Festival over
New couple journey;
Two-gather as one family
