Andrew And Manijeh Wolpert Poem by Jonathan ROBIN

Neither in church with an abbe to pray,
nor in a mosque with an imam to sway,
but before the registrar this Wednesday
Their troths they will plight, let no-one gainsay.

All their love and fidelity to repay,
and trust, truth and tenderness to resay,
after years' delay, 'I do' each shall say,
re-echoed by friends, three cheers and hurray!

Fruitful and multiply all hope they may
be, and replenish the Earth for alway.
To cherish each other, if not to obey,
let them live happier every day!

For Andrew Wolpert and his Manijeh,
A light little lay for their Wedding Day.
