(For Neil and Laura)
Blue-lit eyes spoke silent verse
As wet lips touched in electric kiss
With fingers linked and double breath
The lovers made their first promise
And as the sun arose again
Blood and bone were fused as one
Their vows enshrined in tiny hearts
Beating with the lovers song
With Summer grass he weaved a nest
With gentle warmth she filled their home
And every night he spoke the words
My love, you'll never walk alone
So now beneath these holy eaves
Raised by love in distant landsLet us witness the lovers promise

To join their hearts and lives and hands
