my best friend presided over my marriage to Carly this summer.
Well it is his 10th anniversary and he and his wife are going to renew thier vows and I am to preside over their ceremony!
I want to do a really, really, really good job and I was wondering if you, the good people of Newstoday might be able to recommend a lovely poem that speaks of the testaments of time.
i will be forever in your debt... but i will never repay it.
love,

I will make you a valentine of snow;
you can let it melt
and dip your fingers in
to know how a rivulet felt.Or lift it to your lips
to slake a thirst-
if you remember sips
and thirst and lips.Where you have gone, or go
I will send you a valentine of snow
In case you do not touch snow, now.

What about songs? I really love Breathless by Nick Cave and think that whatever girl he wrote that for is his ;)

two of my friends got married a few weeks ago and asked me to read the owl and the pussycat at their ceremony.
it was really hard not to laugh.
i thought it was a great idea, but your friends probably aren't as freaky as mine.

I'd write a poem for ye, but I don't believe the word "hooooor" should ever be spoken at a matrimonial ceremony.

god forbid my visa situation ever becomes that desperate, but should i ever have a matrimonial ceremony of my own, i would hope that the word 'hooooor' would play a significant role in the proceedings...

I think Nina Simone's wild is the wind is one of the very beautiful propa love songs.

I had that playing one time during an intimate occasion wiv a girl. She was menstruating at the time, so I rubbed her genitalia and I wiped the menstrual blood once across my forehead, two lines on each of my cheeks just below my eyes, and then made a cross with it on my bare chest. I then ran into the garden and yelled her name at the top of my voice into the moonlit night.
That's true love that is right there.

Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
I suck at poems,
but damn the bride is hot
