A Wedding Wish

As a new life dawns, standing side by side,
May your hearts become one and may love abide.
May the dreams that you're dreaming all come true,
And may everything wonderful happen to you.
May you come to know that in love it's wise,
To give of yourself and to compromise,
To learn how to listen and how to forgive,
And to treasure each other as long as you live,
May you be as happy as you can be,
In a home that's filled with tranquility,
But when storms arise and they cause distress,
May you counter the turmoil with tenderness.
As you share in the laughter and the tears,
May you freely express your hopes and your fears,
May you grow old together side by side,
And forever and always may true love abide.

Wedding and Anniversary Verses
By Injete Chesoni

Today two souls
Will become one
Joined together
By the bonds of love
With God’s blessings
Shining down from above
Two hearts
Will join together as one

~~~~~~~
I sit here knowing, I am a step away
from changing my life forever.
I ask myself am I ready,
to leave all I have known behind,
and forge into the future.
I ask am I ready,
to throw all caution to the wind,
and entwine my life so closely with that of another.
I begin to hesitate
and on the eve of change,
I want to hold time still for a moment.
I cannot go back, but I am so afraid to go forward.
Yet, I know that time will not wait for me.
And on the eve of change I realize that
I must move forward with time,
or time will leave me behind.
