February Wedding Poems and Vows
Poems
In the month of February 'twas fate
We chose our special wedding date
A love, I cannot explain
Couldn’t wait to take his name
So why do I still hyphenate?

GLORIOUS FIELD FOR WEDDING DREAMS - 7
Red ~ yellow buds on summer-shine, green leaves sway free on clear blue skies
I, alone on the bench, holding my tears cause she said: "no". . .
Sunrise smile, stop the setting sun, when can I have wedding march?

Celtic courtship ended
nineteen eighty-two.
Marriage nuptials blended
"us" from me and you.
Seaside lovers heading
to the Irish Sea
showcase Christmas wedding,
silver jubilee.
Touring without hassle -
Isle of Man’s ferry,
Dublin, Blarney Castle,
Cobh Cork, and Kerry.
Guinness, china, mincemeat
pricey souvenirs;
homespun sweaters compete
lamb’s wool profiteers.

Ted purchased an Internet bride
She arrived and stood at Ted’s side
But imagine Ted’s shock –
His new ‘bride’ had a cock
Ted’s chagrin cannot be denied
Ted discovered his ‘brides’ name was Bill
Who’d grown breasts with the aid of a pill
Ted was very annoyed
Said their marriage was void
The thought of sex now made him feel ill!
Inspired by a comment Arthur made on my poem posted yesterday called Mail Order Brides

C Coffeecake, for goodness sake,
A apples, sugar, nuts and spice.
K Kuchen for weddings? no mistake;
E enjoy a second slice.
F Favorite, I recommend
O opt to try what groom has baked,
R ranked first-place by friends.
G Gooey glaze, oh what a break
R relished by manly men.
O Oat flour sparks the appetite.
O Odd flavor, an added take,
M malt whiskey with each bite
S Shh! it's not IN the cake.

Something old,
Something new,
Something borrowed,
Something blue.
My dress was old,
Reused from prom,
I had no gold,
But I had Mom.
My nails were new
What could I do?
My dress was blue,
I used it, too.
My mom was there,
We curled my hair,
We did not care,
It was not fair.
They were not there,
They never showed,
Did not reserve,
Did I deserve
Deserve to be treated
Feel like I'm defeated
Now I'm just seated
I just want to feel needed.
Pleasures of a season begin again
Refilling life's honey from festive days,
Now, your delicate plea offers me
An eternity like the mountain’s stream--
That I accept as I see your ardor in it.
Let me harvest fine grain with you,
To make yeast and inhale its steam,
And lay fresh, white linen on the bed
While a wedded veil flutters by,
To sit with you at our kitchen table
Quietly writing a Valentine letter.

White Dresses (Worker poems)
Dry land consist the soil,
that comprises of a grass,
it also consist of the rivers,
with banks of sands-
People are doing work by their hands,
delightfully their eyes are looking into their hands,
Fingers are moving from their palms,
silently they are knitting threads of a cotton wool
from the sheep cotton,
They are using sewing machines,
From their hands into their brains,
They sew creative intelligence to wedding dresses
Thus they make dresses for weddings.
White Dresses
I shall etch your SILHOUETTE with grace and adoration,
and it will be an a r t i s a n masterpiece through eternity-
for you my love, bring me a r e s o n a t i n g sensation,
today I vow my LOVE to you through holy matrimony.
written as the front of a greeting card from a
bride to her groom on their wedding day.
