William's Romantic Wedding Penn

Wearing the champion beau crown 
William's port the dude's tug was bound 
Sapphire ring 
Shined with bling 
Lucky, very happy 
Not sappy 
Snow coming down hard 
Staring from the bar 
"Time, I carry out this mission, 
It is her decision, 
Destiny on my side 
She will decide 
Doing the right thing 
Since I am her King"
There she was 
Showing Princess buzz 
Until the liberty bell sent a response 
"Anything else are their wants? 
Voice shouted, filled with demand 
Making the command
"Formal nice white dress 
Bridesmaids will be impressed 
Romance 
Special dance 
Day reserved for me 
Is what I decree" 
Months later 
Brotherly love paid her
Weather turned warm 
And a family was born
Creating a Queen for the day 
Hearing people say 
"Good luck," sending off the pair 
Confirming a permanent affair 
Loving emotions that cannot be compared 
Since once the key stone is unlocked 
Married couples are off the marketing block

Alison A Smith August 30, 2026 at 12:06 AM What a beautiful and romantic narrative, Marc! I love how the poem shifts seasons, moving from the suspense of the snowy proposal with the sparkling sapphire ring to the warm, joyful wedding day. Your use of rhyming couplets gives the piece a wonderful, upbeat rhythm that perfectly matches the celebratory theme. The final lines about unlocking the keystone are a fantastic way to conclude this story of lasting love. Marc O'Brien August 30, 2026 at 10:14 AM Did you notice the Pennsylvania connection?
