      I once was a chestnut, I hung from a tree,Like all of the young, I longed to be free.One day I landed, it felt like a mile.I need not have worried, I was in Hutton soil.My work had just started, ‘twas about 1803.That’s when I knew, I’d become a tree.

      Whispers in the wind

      Whispers in the wind

      Brought the news today

      That the magic has begun

      And tomorrow is calling

      Come and they will know

      The magic of it all

      For the sparkle in their eyes

      Is a window into their hearts

      Two spirits are entwined

      Out among the stars

      Walking hand in hand

      For all eternity

      The circle is now complete

      These two are now one

      And tonight we all know

      Love is in the air

      Marriage Prayer

      As we stand here together

      Ready to share

      A new future together

      Watching tomorrow’s Golden Sunrise

      God will help us as we look

      Into each other’s eyes

      To always remember

      That tiny seed of love that bloomed

      And brought our

      Separate paths together

      Two hearts merged

      Into one

      So that nothing can

      Divide us

      Or disturb the love in

      Our entwined hearts

      Silence broken by

      Two hearts beating

      Filled with love & forgiveness

      For we know that our love

      For each other

      Will only grow stronger

      Each day

      When we commit this

      Marriage into the

      Father’s hands

      For all eternity

      Today I uncurled a Rose

      And it wrapped

      around my Heart

      And I knew that

      In this Complicated Life

      that touch of Velvet

      Would be Forever

      Carried on

      Wings of Love

      For the Dance of Life

      has begun

      With the Interwoven Love

      Of Two Souls

      Interlinked

      On that Magic Carpet Ride

      Out among the Stars

      Wrapped in the arms of Love

      Through out

      Eternity

      The seasons of

      Ever changing love

      Begins with a

      Magical moment

      Of discovery

      As each

      Magical day unfolds

      Into a summer of

      Sun & Flowers
