Jared and Jessica
Can’t help falling in love
with an eye fiesta
of variegated sea blues to green lawn
From Aqua bay to
Green shades native forest
Tui notes cascade above
white water stream,
Grey clouds lace mountain ridges
releasing showers onto
the dress up colours of wedding guests
and umbrellas fetched from cars.
Then a pause in the rainy weather
Moisture trickles joy in eyes
of the bow tie groom
as the bride glides on father’s arm
down the grassy isle,
Ceremony words
Lace the air
Weaving God’s life
Prayer and communion
Laughter with love
Friends and family in tune
with the outdoor celebration,
A stillness descends
wind pauses holding breath
and sun warms our backs
Rings with pledges and loyalty
exchanged
Jared and Jessica
Heart and song
Can’t help falling in love
with you
Starting Thoughts: A wedding of a great pair of friends. Held in one of the bays in Akaroa, Christchurch.
