Wedding Poem - Come Love As One

In the setting sun on the shore to the symphony of the Nightingales

Two Trees bend as their fronds dance in the wind

And the Inner Light Speaks – Come Listen As One

She the Queen Palm and He the Willow

Both have endured much but now the calm invades their spaces

And the Inner Light Speaks – Come Trust As One

She once so protective of her young so strong yet so afraid to feel

He a stranger in a new land so far had his seed been blown from its source

And the Inner Light Speaks – Come Hear As One

Their Limbs intertwine and roots reach out to touch

As tendrils seek the same underground spring’s refreshing source

And the Inner Light Speaks – Come Share As One

Now their Love will form a sheltering canopy for her young

Who will venture forth trusting in the morrow

And the Inner Light Speaks – Come Discover As One

Give forth your heart to each other

Stay true to thou vows

Shelter and Strengthen Each Other

And the Inner Light Speaks – Come Love As One
