In the moments when your eyes
Meet
Under canopies of cloth
Or sun
Or stars,
And the world recedes to
Nothing but
Who the both of you
Are,
When your
Union
Seals with
Promise
Ringed with hopes and tender
Kiss,
May you both know
That you do
And that your love
Can nurture
Bliss.

Thanks, Cee! The photo is from a wedding of one of my nieces and the poem was inspired by it, but also by the upcoming wedding of another niece in a few weeks. 🙂

Yes … The photo is from the wedding of one of my nieces some years back — they have a beautiful family and a lovely-to-witness love between them and with their children. Just joy to witness. The poem is also inspired by an upcoming wedding of another niece (the cousin of the niece in the photo) in a few weeks. I’m so excited for them! 🙂 XOXO Na’ama
