WEDDING DAY!

Once upon a time

I taught you how to rhyme.

Dressed you in your skirt,

And kissed away your hurt.

I loved to watch you play,

Learning every day.

Taking it all in,

So one day you would win.

Sneakers to be tied,

Those never-ending rides;

Soccer, dancing, cheering,

Then "god, what's that you're wearing?!"

I watched you as you grew,

And even then I knew

That someday you would be

So happy and carefree.

This journey that you're on

Can sometimes seem so long.

For me, it flew so fast!

The present's now the past.

As you walk down that aisle,

I'll look at you and smile.

Don't fret about my tears, 

Reminders of the years.

Fun things that we would do,

Chalk, the beach, the zoo.

These memories I treasure;

I love you beyond measure. 

Now here's my heartfelt wish

As you seal it with a kiss

For Nick and you, his wife,

I wish you both a happy life!
