I love: <br /> The tides that ebb and flow <br /> And marbled lights on broken roads <br /> The warmth of poetry within <br /> Evening caress that transcends sin. <br /> <br />I love: <br /> The birds that were duped by an early thaw <br /> To mid-winter song, and wonder - <br /> If they were so very wrong? <br /> <br />I ask you to take this ageing ring of gold <br />Companion touchstone of a first communion <br />And to hold its trust as we will mold <br />What God shall join for evermore.<br /><br />Bill Grace<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/love-poem-for-a-wedding-1976-chapbook/
