Adrien Henri - Love is

Love is...

Love is feeling cold in the back of vans

Love is a fanclub with only two fans

Love is walking holding paintstained hands

Love is.

Love is fish and chips on winter nights

Love is blankets full of strange delights

Love is when you don't put out the light

Love is

Love is the presents in Christmas shops

Love is when you're feeling Top of the Pops

Love is what happens when the music stops

Love is

Love is white panties lying all forlorn

Love is pink nightdresses still slightly warm

Love is when you have to leave at dawn

Love is

Love is you and love is me

Love is prison and love is free

Love's what's there when you are away from me

Love is...[/COLOR]




** Not sure if you want to include the bit about panties??? depends on your wedding party!!!***

The Willow

At the end of a long day, I lay out under the stars beside the river, and my dearest love cradled my head in her lap. She ran her fingers against my temples and forehead, soft and cool and delicate. And I slept. I slept as I had never done before or since.

When I awoke, she was gone and there was a tall tree standing where she had been the night before. A willow, it's delicate branches touching my face like tears. It remained there,by the river, long after I had gone.

You see the willow is deceptively very strong. It bends but does not break.
Its roots are deep and can withstand the worst storm. It promises rest and shade and comfort to those who would find rest beneath it.

You have become my willow and I have found shelter in your love

I'm glad that link has helped some people... i look at them and just start blubbing, that's the first sign for me that they are not going to be read at my wedding!!!!!

Time in a bottle - Jim Croyce

“If I could save time in a bottle, the first thing that I'd like to do, is to save every day ‘till eternity passes away, just to spend them with you. If I could make days last forever; if words could make wishes come true; I'd save every day like a treasure and then, again, I would spend them with you. If I had a box just for wishes, and dreams that had never come true; the box would be empty, except for the memory of how they were answered by you. But there never seems to be enough time to do the things you want to do, once you find them. I've looked around enough to know that you're the one I want to go through time with.”

Sniff!! I'm not sure i could say this without making my mascara run!Love it!

Pam Aryes 'I Do' Is a witty one;

[FONT=Times New Roman, Times, serif]Yes, I'll marry you, my dear,
And here's the reason why;
So I can push you out of bed
When the baby starts to cry,
And if we hear a knocking
And it's creepy and it's late,
I hand you the torch you see,
And you investigate.[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, Times, serif]Yes, I'll marry you, my dear,
You may not apprehend it,
But when the tumble-drier goes
It's you that has to mend it,
You have to face the neighbour
Should our labrador attack him,
And if a drunkard fondles me
It's you that has to whack him.[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, Times, serif]Yes, I'll marry you,
You're virile and you're lean,
My house is like a pigsty
You can help to keep it clean.
That sexy little dinner
Which you served by candlelight,
As I do chipolatas,
You can cook it every night![/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, Times, serif]It's you who has to work the drill
and put up curtain track,
And when I've got PMT it's you who gets the flak,
I do see great advantages,
But none of them for you,
And so before you see the light,
I do, I do, I do![/FONT]

It is quite sweet, isn't it - I love the Pam Ayres one - and I would love to say that to my OH if we ever get around to getting married...!!
But I also love the Willow - which is kinda more me - more earthy and nature loving.
