Poems

Honeymoon Cocoon

Fly me to the moon
Play us the bedroom tunes
The nod-nod head of lovers’ hoots
Let’s twirl this tango as David in jolly mood
And coil in celestial honeymoon cocoon.

Best Laid Plans

A flawless ceremony,
and elegant reception,
followed by long honeymoon 
delayed by snowfall.

The Honeymoon

The honey moon[Alliteration]

Tobi takes Tope to Thailand in a top class Train,
which  makes  Mike to marry Michelle
in Cynthia`s crystalline church, 
This baffles Becky Baker but,
Propels Peter Parker to pick a powerful package.

My Son Mike

I popped on to myspace
And what did I see
Mike and his girlfriend
Had gotten married

I knew she was pregnant
And he will soon deploy
Iraq is where he'll be
When finding out if it's girl or boy

A beautiful young lady
A wife, and soon to be a mom
I wish they weren't so far away
So I could help her a long

My son is a man of strength
He fights for us every day
May the "two" loves of his life
Guide him back home to stay

...and I'm gonna kick your butt if you don't call me after the honeymoon!

I love you all...

Kissing, Caressing

Shapely and pert
Curves of delight
Skin so soft
My want excites

We lean in together
Two bodies in blend
Our signals transmit
Sensuous send

My hands cup
Her womanly charms
She touches me gentle
As i kiss down her arms

In sync we love
Like rolling ocean waves
Kissing, caressing
As we inner crave

In each other we absorb
Skin to skin
Our moment of capture
Loving joys from within

Releasing we do
Contentedly spooned
On our honeymoon
We, bride and groom

My Thoughts

I thought by now that I would have 
traveled down the aisle of matrimony
I thought by now that a silver band would 
have been placed upon my finger
I thought by now that there would have 
been well wishes and a honeymoon
I thought by now that there would be, well 
you know how it goes


Thought...hmmmmmmm

Well, his ways are not my ways, his 
thoughts are not my thoughts
It's all about his timing

So, I'll wait with the thoughts that God 
loves me so much that he has kept
me for that special someone

My Thoughts...

Her Wedding

It’s been a funny summer, June
skipped into August and was gone.
How did we miss that afternoon?
It’s been a funny summer. June
just packed her bags. No honeymoon.
The whole production overdrawn,
it’s been one funny summer. June
skipped into August and is gone.

Sue's Hat

On our honeymoon to Austria,
Sue liked a Tyrolean hat in green.
Although it was costlier
Than others we’d seen,
I bought it, so I didn’t look mean.

Honeymoon

.

Our barefoot cottage,
         easy, small, unpretentious.

For you and me here
         preciously spacious.
 
Wordless comfort, wondrous,
         we two are now us.

You Have Angered Me

(I got the idea for this fictional poem from Me, myself & Irene.)

You cheated on me when we were on our honeymoon.
I was afraid that you'd cheat but I didn't know you'd do it that soon.
You couldn't have hurt me more if you had shot me in the face.
I thought our love was remarkable when it was really a disgrace.
You just gave birth and that proves that you and another man jumped in the sack.
I know you cheated because I'm white and the baby is black.

Overview

A honeymoon offers wedding poets a change of scene: the ceremony has ended, the guests have gone home, and two people begin a quieter chapter together. In a poem, it can hold the first unhurried morning after the celebration, the excitement of unfamiliar streets, or the comfort of simply having nowhere else to be. The destination may be distant, nearby, or even imagined; what matters is the shared pause and the attention the couple gives one another. Honeymoon poems work well as gifts, keepsakes, vow-book additions, or reflections written after the journey. They can be playful about missed trains and overpacked bags, tender about private rituals, or thoughtful about returning home changed. Use sensory details—salt air, hotel curtains, mountain rain, coffee on a balcony—to make the experience feel personal. The strongest poems balance romance with honest, specific moments, allowing joy to emerge naturally rather than relying on grand declarations.

Meaning and Symbolism

The honeymoon can symbolize transition: a brief threshold between the public celebration of marriage and the everyday life that follows. Its journey may suggest discovery, not only of a place but of new habits, hopes, and ways of moving through the world together. Rest can carry meaning too, offering space to absorb the wedding and recognize the partnership beneath the festivities. In poetry, luggage may represent what each person brings into the marriage; maps can evoke shared direction; tides, roads, and changing light can reflect time and possibility. Yet a honeymoon need not symbolize perfection. Delays, rain, and small mishaps can reveal patience, humor, and care. Because couples celebrate in many ways, the image is most inclusive when it centers companionship rather than expense, distance, or a particular kind of destination.

Wedding Poem Writing Ideas

Build the poem around details that belong to the couple rather than a generic romantic setting.

  • Begin with the first morning: Describe the light, sounds, breakfast, or quiet realization that the wedding day is over and married life has begun.
  • Use the journey as a structure: Let packing, departure, arrival, and returning home become stages in the poem.
  • Include one small mishap: A wrong turn, sudden rain, or forgotten item can introduce humor while showing patience and teamwork.
  • Focus on a shared ritual: Write about evening walks, morning coffee, postcards, photographs, or another repeated moment that became meaningful.
  • Contrast place and partnership: Set vivid scenery beside the quieter discovery that being together matters more than the destination.

Sample Wedding Poem Lines

Morning opened the curtains, and our new life entered with the light.
We carried two small bags and a future too large to fold.
The map grew soft at the edges where our hands kept meeting.
Rain changed every plan except the one that kept us side by side.
We returned with sand in our shoes and new names for ordinary joy.
