What do you think this poem is about?

Taking the Leap (For Tara & Ez)

Love has such a great way of growing
Often by leaps and bounds lovers say
Loving hearts have a way of knowing
When to decide on a Wedding Day

So Leap year is really quite fitting
Extra special to happen this way
Leaping hearts fluttering and flitting
With joy heading to a Wedding Day

Love does not tell time by a clock face
Calendar neither holds any sway
Love moves on at hearts very own pace
So do two hearts chose a Wedding Day

Enjoy all the moments that will come
There’s not really much more I need say
Two hearts are rejoicing in one home
Having heart-picked their own Wedding Day

~ Love is Everything ~

All the best to the two of you from Mary and Jim
(We took the Leap on Leap Year Day in 2004)

    A leap worth taking when two hearts are so-joined by love

    'Love does not tell time by a clock face
    Calendar neither holds any sway
    Love moves on at hearts very own pace
    So do two hearts chose a Wedding Day'

    Wonderful!

    Love duncan X
