They Said 'I Do'

They Said 'I Do'

Dressed in white and grey,

They utter those celestial words.

Words which now bind them,

Words which they longed to say.

Their smiles tell of the delight,

Their hearts feel right now.

Yes, they too are human and nervous,

Though larger than life they will always be.

Through many trials have they been.

Many proscriptions have they bravely broken.

He, a man of class and fervour,

She, dainty, sweet and loving.

Their love resounds in the heartbeats of those they love.

Their humility knows no bounds.

Tis how one should always love,

And show the world how it is done.

I have seen them laugh,

I have seen them teary-eyed,

And today, with mere words,

I wish to honour them,

My brother of old,

And my sweet sister of new.

May The Almighty shine His love on you,

May His blessings on you be bountiful!

Thank you for evincing true love.

To those who have lost hope in love,

Love is God, Love is our parents,

Love is our better half,

Love is surely Shallum and Areeba!
