I See A Bride

I see a bride
She stands in white
Golden hair surrounds her face
I see a bride
Her richness found
In heart and hand
With love and grace
I see a bride
Her joy abounds
Her groom smiles brightly
His love is bound
For love binds easy
Yielded hearts
Such bondage welcome
Cheered by all
I see a bride
Her heart unfolding
Petals soft and pure and right
I see a bride
Her vows beginning
She stands tall
Tender
Bright
I see a bride
Her love unending
No sway
Her will
Her love
Unbending
I see a bride
In my mind's eye
True, I'm there in heart
I sigh
To see the bride
My cousin sweet
Some day your groom I wish to meet
I see a bride
Wilson, know
I pray for you
As you pledge your troth
I see a bride
Sweet bride
Blessed day!
Again I say
Today I pray
For you, sweet bride
As forever begins
Sweet bride,
For you
May forever never end

My cousin is getting married today. I was not able to attend the wedding, but Mama and my sister were able to go. Anyways, I wanted to write this for my cousin. Sarah Liz, I had you in mind, too. I'll claim you as cousin/sister any day. :) <3

Such softness and beauty. I could feel and see the light and loveliness. My favorites lines: "Her heart unfolding / Petals soft and pure and right." What a gift to give someone, Damaris!!!

This was done beautifully. I almost felt as if I was seeing this bride as I read. Very well done and so engaging. Thank you so much!
