I couldn't end my blog tonight without adding one of my personal favourites. My brother and his wife asked me if I would write a poem to be read out on their wedding day. I humbly agreed and ended up writing two, but I think they chose the perfect one and I am quite proud of it I must admit. They are both beautiful, amazing people so I wanted the poem to be amazing too. Mind you I was also asked if I could read it out on the day. I'm not sure if I have ever been so terrified in my life lol But miraculously I didn't stumble over my words, and I didn't fall down the hill I was standing on despite the fact I was wearing 3 inch heels! Also, I was also reassured that no one could actually see how much I was shaking. It was a gorgeous wedding, so please enjoy my little piece that contributed to their special day.
Two Hearts, One Life
Two passionate souls meet,
two hearts skip a beat.
Eyes start to sparkle
skin starts to tingle.
The world suddenly opens up to new possibilities.
Hand in hand
two lives entwine.
Dreams for the future
go from 'I' to 'we'
He needs her like she needs he.
Embracing the rarity of finding someone who loves you
as much as you love them.
A promise to love them entirely.
To love the good things and the challenging things.
When you look at each other
you see perfection,
so the things that challenge you
will remind you that you are only human.
For love will often make you feel
like you have wings to fly.
It makes you feel like you are two beings
inhabiting a world of your own.
Love is not just a word
but an action that speaks volumes.
Love softens you and exposes your weaknesses.
This is what makes us so intriguing to each other.
To love is to make a promise
to not only stay true to yourselves
but to each other.
It's finding someone you cannot bear to live without,
because to do so
would leave you feeling
lost and incomplete.
Because loving them makes sense.
As the world spins around
and time passes by,
you know that one thing remains constant.
Your love for each other,
because true love is ageless.
As your love fills the room
and your vows fill the silence.
We bear witness,
to your exchange of promises of devotion
that will bind you as you embark on your journey
as husband and wife.
Two hearts to share one life.

Enjoy the rest of your night and no doubt I will blogging again tomorrow!
Peace out (yup I'm going to tack that onto all my blogs now 'cos I know it's not annoying at all) ;)
