My Forever After.

Goldfinch60



The wedding was over,

The vows given and received,

All were happy.

The love of the couple

Shining like the silken moon

In their eyes.

 

Sometime later

A drink in our hands

The groom and I stood together,

Just chatting,

“Are you happy?” I asked,

And his reply astounded me,

“This day I have found my forever after”

  • Comment from author about the poem: This is true. Our next door neighbours were married on Saturday and in the evening I was chatting to the groom and the words in the poem were what he said after I have asked him if he was happy.

    Man, Goldfinch, I have been staring at that last line forever, and still don't know what I am after!

      When he said that to me I was totally taken aback, I told him that there was a poem there. I gave him and his wife the poem over the fence yesterday and they were both close to tears after reading, she said to him "Did you really say that?"

      A poem as beautiful as the love they share. Great job Goldie.

      Thanks ANDY for caring & sharing ~ As you remind us for a RELATIONSHIP to work "Love is all you NEED" to be "Happy ever after !" everything else is a BONUS ~ ANGELA & I are working on it ! Yours BRIAN

        Thanks Brian, love is all. Tomorrow it will be 36 years since I walked back up the aisle with my wonderful Joyce.
