The Wedding

OK..so I will not have written for 365 consecutive days. I did not write on Saturday, Sunday or yesterday. I've had plenty to write about however and have been writing "in my head"--its what I do when there is no way that I'm going to get to the computer or sit down with a pen in hand. Sometimes I compose prose but writing in my head often consists of quick notes or poetry like haiku.

My weekend was spent on wedding activities while battling a flu (its a good thing a friend intoduced me to Advil Cold & Sinus or I would have just curled up into a fetal positon & done nothing); we decorated the absoluting gorgeous Burnaby Rowing Club Pavillion, watched the stunning bride walk down the aisle to her albeit nervous but happy groom, had dinner at Horizon's on Burnaby Mountain & then danced the night away watching the sun set through the wall of windows overlooking the lake. It was both breathtaking and inspiring. I was inspired.

Haiku-The Wedding

Walking down the aisle

Graceful satin, pearls and lace

Tears glisten and shine

He waits straight and tall

Eyes meet with joy and wonder

Hearts open to love

Standing before God

Promises to each other

Vows said from the heart

Commitment made true

Troth bonded, gold rings entwined

Two become one flesh

Dancing at sunset

Twilight deepens, stars twinkle

In celebration

Walking together

Step by step Husband and Wife

A new life begun
