Dr John Celes Wedding Poems

More years have fled away so fast;
Much time has sped into the past;
Affection, love have stood steadfast;
The world looks small although so vast.
...

May love of God that joined you together
In Holy Matrimony keep
You healthy, wealthy, pious and wise!
...

Another Wedding day has come,
With you both live through Providence!
Oh, what a day of happiness -
God's mercy bountiful is upon you!
...

A special day to think about
The glory of how days had passed;
A special day to rest at last,
The woes and doubts about life past!
...

Two bodies, minds, two hearts and souls,
A quarter century ago,
God joined together for life-times,
To walk His righteous road.
...

Another wedding day has blossomed fast,
Evoking reminiscences of past,
And happy memories of that great day,
As we were brought together in God's way!
...

God blessed a man, woman, as husband, wife!
This marriage holy stood the tests of time;
The bond was strange but love prevailed in life;
It stayed steadfast despite inclement clime.
...

The world may tell so many things but God
United you as husband, wife on earth -
A bond divine although it may look odd,
Yet makes your lives so meaningful since birth.
...

For more than half a century,
You lived as man and wife;
By grace of Jesus Lord, Mary,
You eked your earthly life.
...
