A Perfect Day, September 18,2010 Poem by Theresa Ann Moore

Wedding vows of devotion are spoken
on this day… a day witnessed happily
The beginning of a glorious life of harmony
celebrated with close friends and family

A fine reception is planned to honor the pair
a radiant bride and groom… giving opportunity
for all who are gathered to rejoice and mingle
A time to share laughter and toast to unity

Guests are assembled and anxiously await
With spontaneous applause… hearts gladden
Here's the couple and their wedding party…
wearing black tails, gossamer lace, and silky satin

'It is all like a fairy tale… everything is perfect, '
said the proud mother of the bride… beaming
Wishing that the celebration could go on forever…
as the last dance concludes a splendid evening

The vibrant colors of the day have faded away
Still the sounds of joy continue to reverberate
With eyes closed, gilded thoughts are absorbed
into a pillow of unseen dreams that slowly sedate
