For Kym (Wedding Poem)

Friendship founded what we have now become,
It’s often said ‘love’ is two souls living as one.
An insight of truth whispers through the leaves-
A kiss, a moment, remember to breathe.
A season followed, a season passed,
Now we are here, here at last.
Constellations align into focus,
With eyes so bright, take time to notice,
In that same ground where the angels tread
Our knees will rest and we’ll eternally wed,
Then no matter what time, or the unexpected may bring,
We’ll be forever encircled by eternity’s wings,
I’ll see your face glow with light and virtue
And I’ll hold out my hand, like I always do,
We’ll walk through the gardens to approach the throne,
To see the place where love was first known,
With that same love etched into our hearts,
We’ll all rejoice that it took us so far,
So far beyond any stretch of imagination,
So much deeper and warmer than any sunburst ocean,
You are my true love, you are my queen,
I’ll cherish you always, in every degree.
