A Wedding Sonnet
Those of you who write with me are probably aware that I’ve been meaning to start writing sonnets. WELL, my friend/teacher is getting married this Saturday and I wrote a wedding sonnet for the card. If you would like to use this sonnet, you may, but you must credit me for it! You don’t have to use the title though. I just want my name there somewhere/please don’t plagiarize me. If you want to change the poem PLEASE ASK ME or else quote my poem and write your own changes. (This applies to all my poems, of course.)
A Wedding Sonnet
Amy Neal
Across the town the bells will ring today,
The joyous sound of love that’s just beginning;
Before the happy couple slips away,
The guests will share their toasts and leave them grinning.
The scene is set, the groom awaits his love,
She enters and he can’t believe his eyes;
A reverend invokes the Lord above,
And with two rings they make the strongest ties.
The moment is complete, but never gone,
The memories of this one day will last;
Love is never-ending; it keeps on,
Goes forward but does not forget the past.
In my short time on Earth I’ve not seen two
More fated for each other, yes, than you.
