Within Her Eyes

Within her eyes, once I lifted the veil,
Elation, I found, in shimmering tears,
A happiness vowing love would prevail,
And it has, indeed, through decades and years.

Nothing is more beautiful than when a new bride looks into the eyes of her groom. True Love Endures.

Very "Mushy", Dave. However, very beautiful too and my kind of thing.

I guess it's what I called "mushy" as a kid. Now I'll read it to her and see how far it gets me! Thanks, Heidi!
