The Blessing Ring
Where it starts and where it ends
It is not clear, not because it is questioned
But because it is the circle that blends
Two in one in a bond designed by heaven.
In gold, it forever shines
A symbol of everlasting love
A force most sublime
Granted within us from above.

Blessing For Nik and James
May your married life be fruitful
and full of color,
And may your life together
be forever entwined,
like ivy on a wall.
The Holy Scarf
The priest stares towards the new blushing bride
A question in his old eyes
Replaced by a sweet smile
Gives her delicate hand to waiting groom
Blessing their pious union
With a holy red scarf
A Blessing What Is Love
Love is a blessing, and always will be.
For love still remains life''s sweetest mystery.
Love works in ways that are wondrous and strange
and there''s nothing in life that love cannot change.
Love can transform in the most common place,
Into beauty and splendor, sweetness, and grace
Love is unselfish, understanding and kind.
For its sees from the heart and not from the mind.
Love is the answer that everyone seeks.
Love is the language that every heart speaks.
Love can''t be bought its priceless and free.
A blessing from God above, oh shall it be.
Marriage
Marriage is a deal
It gives love’s recognition
It is a blessing
It paves the way for more care
For each other in the world
Wedding Blessing
As you stand here before God,
Now may he stand beside you.
May you and your family be blessed in all that you do.
May your family find love as your hearts twine as one.
May your journey thru life follow the light he has shone.
Together you’re stronger than ever apart.
And thru the years, may God be found forever in your heart.
My nephew was married at Christmas.
Monsters
My mother-in-law is a blessing
Only to her son
Now that we are married
She has me on the run
The Lady's always changing
Everything I've done
Regrets, I don't have many
She's the only one

A Wedding
A Wedding
Let the bells ring!
Let the bells sound!
For today, in this place,
Hope and love abound.
You are united
As husband and wife,
You embark together
To build a new life.
A life rich and full
As your love for each other,
To share anew,
With sister and brother.
People will know when they see you
How content you are,
Fulfilled in your love
Your dreams have reached a star.
For there is no feeling
With greater expanse,
Than the feeling of love
A woman has for a man.
May God bless this union
With a blessing of love,
May He watch over you
Tenderly from above.
Promise For Another Day
You and me,
we were ment to be,
a match made in heaven,
for everyone to see.
for i saw in your heart
all that was true.
Two room flat with a jaded view
my opinions may sway
but never when it comes to you
you were made for me
and i for you,
we both know
we will always be true.
Time is a blessing
For days like wine grows sweeter
in this wait for you.
Moments become memories
the heart is joined
in splendd union with the words I do
And In So Changing
And in so changing, does the sun
Lose heat or luminosity,
And do the solar winds succumb,
Surrender their ferocity?
And in so changing, must the seas
Trade depth and hidden wonder,
And do the sands defy the surf
Thus burying us under?
And in so changing, could the skies
Bleed space and all infinity,
And do the stars of night forsake
Their angel bright divinity?
And in so changing in the eyes
Of God and all His blessing,
And as you are so shall you be
Two lovers coalescing.
