For Steve and Deborah <br /> <br /> In the silence of the evening, <br /> a whisper came to me. <br /> <br /> A very happy bride-to-be <br /> is united with her youth. <br /> <br /> For her long awaited bridegroom <br /> has come to calm his own. <br /> <br /> The years ahead are looming <br /> and the joys will yet be earned. <br /> <br /> But the roses that entwine your path <br /> will shield from horrid thorns. <br /> <br /> Always look to sunshine <br /> and know that rain must fall. <br /> <br /> All the while hold in your heart <br /> that love still conquers all.<br /><br />Eleanor L.
