It is your marriage anniversary- <br />The day two hearts were blessed as man and wife <br />In Church: before the Lord, you did marry, <br />With pledge to love and share each other’s strife! <br /> <br />The gentleman looked neat in attire; <br />The lady dressed almost like a fairy: <br />Bejeweled gorgeously in a saree; <br />While thanks-giving hymns sung were by lyre. <br /> <br />The nuptial knots were tied on sacred thread <br />On earth, but marriage was made in heaven; <br />‘Let none break what I’ve joined today, ’ God said; <br />You thanked the Lord for this and said, Amen! <br /> <br />Yes, many years have testified this truth; <br />The gift of child- proof of God bless’d a fruit! <br /> <br />Copyright by Dr John Celes 2-15-2008<br /><br />Dr John Celes<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/sonnet-on-my-brother-s-marriage-anniversary/
