Faded Red Roses

Faded Red Roses

Author: David Harris

She stood at the alter
A gown of white she did wear
With a bouquet of red roses
And blue ribbons in her hair
She waited for someone
Who was never to come

Tears leaked from her eyes
Across her cheeks did run
The bouquet of red roses
For her wedding day
Have all now faded
As time slipped away

Those faded red roses
She still holds in her hand
Years have come and gone
Waiting for this man
You’ll still find her
With tears in her eyes

As the hopes he’ll still come
Fade like the roses
Washed too much by the sun
Today she still waits all alone
Those faded red roses in her hand
Is now all that she owns.

Doves Of Love

Doves Of Love

Author: David Harris

The doves of love
fly each wedding day.
There are rainbows
there even on a rainy day.
Their eyes look at each other
as their vows they say.
Family and friends gather
on this special day,
to wish the couple,
all the happiness,
for their future together,
through each coming year.

Dance With Me Tonight

Dance With Me Tonight

Author: Kristi Day

I want to dance with you for a life time
Hold you close to my heart,
Stop the hands of time
Make the world give us a little more time

To feel our bodies close swaying together
To music that only we can hear,
Letting it sweep us into Heaven
Come, dance with me there

We'll dance forever; never let go
Hearts in tune hand to hand,
Building love between us
That we barely can stand

Candles low no bright lights
Our love will light the way,
Come hold me close; dance with me
Til the night breaks to day

Feel our bodies pressed close
As close as skin to skin,
Open your heart to me baby
Come on, let me in
Fill my senses with your rush
Let me taste your deep kiss,
Hold me tightly to your heart

Never have I felt like this
Never will I feel it again
For within your arms I've died,
I've gone to heaven in your love
These are happy tears I've cried

Never have I been so loved
Or felt so much love for anyone,
Dance with me honey
Until the night is done

Dance with me until the world is done
I can't resist your charms,
Dance with me and hold me close
Let me die within your arms

Don't ever let me go
Dancing with you is so right,
I will never let you go
Come....dance with me tonight.

A Man Of My Heart

A Man Of My Heart

Author: Joyce Hemsley

Spring comes with the sun
cold winds there are none
"man of my heart" - he's the one.

I gazed at him once
I gazed at him twice
this was the start of paradise.

He gazed back at me
he gazed lovingly
I heard the notes of a symphony.

We gazed at each other
and our daydreams took flight
beautiful wedding of white.

Spring comes with the sun
cold winds there are none
"man of my heart" - you're the one.

A Red, Red Rose

A Red, Red Rose

Author: Robert Burns

O my luve’s like a red, red rose,
That’s newly sprung in June;
O my luve’s like the melodie
That’s sweetly play’d in tune.

As fair thou art, my bonnie lass,
So deep in luve am I;
And I will love thee still, my Dear
Till a’ the seas gang dry.

Till a’ the seas gang dry, my Dear,
And the rocks melt wi’ the sun;
I will love thee still, my Dear
While the sands o’ life shall run.

And fare thee weel, my only Luve!
And fare thee weel, a while!
And I will come again, my Luve,
Tho’ it were ten thousand mile!

Angel Of My Life

Angel Of My Life

Author: Manuel

I love you so much that words can't explain
this joy that I have for you.

When I am at the weakest point of my life
you are there encouraging me to run this race
because I am not only cause you are there with me.

You are on my mind day and night.

When we are apart
I picture you gracious smile and gentle hug.

I can let my feelings out to you and won't regret it
because no matter what is you are always on my side.

I thank God for sending me someone like you
who is precious and loving.

So I can truly say that
you are the Angel of My Life.

You Finally Found Each Other

You Finally Found Each Other

Author: Nicholas Gordon

You finally found each other after
Searching hard for love.
In this uncertain world you've come
To one you're certain of.
How can you know the someone whom
You'll cherish throughout life?
What indices identify
A husband or a wife?

Sometimes there's a gravity:
Sudden, fierce, obsessed;
As if you're falling towards some star,
By its strong pull possessed.

Or sometimes there's a childhood sense
Of unselfconscious grace
Sustained within the safety zone
Of unprovoked embrace.

Sometimes there's the terror of
The searing pain of grief,
As if the loss of love were death:
Sheer scream without relief.

Or there's a sense of loveliness
Too precious to be lost:
A gift of all that makes life good,
Beyond constraint or cost.

Whatever signs you read, they all
Point in the same direction:
The self that lies beyond the self
In love and shared affection.

True love lies far beyond the will,
Yet you must choose to love:
Each day to put aside the self
And with the angels move.

Wedding Poetry

Featured Poetry Verses
I love you not only for what you are,
But for what I am when I am with you
I love you not only for what you have made of yourself
But for what you are making me
I love you for the part of me that you bring out.
I love you for passing over all my foolish and weak traits,
That you can't help but see
I love you for drawing out into the light my beauty,
That no one else had looked quite far enough to din
I love you.
