Wedding Poem

This poem was written from the heart while commuting to NY by train. It took a few days, and each day some fellow commuters would look at me with a concerned face because the tears would come each time I wrote a new line. I don't know what they were thinking, but they must have thought I was very unhappy. Little did they know I was happy and anxious at the same time... Eventually, I really did get a beautiful little granddaughter!

Today's My Daughter's Wedding Day

Published by Family Friend Poems July 2011 with permission of the Author.

Today's my daughter's wedding day.
And a wonderful thing it is
To see her so excited,
So happy to be his.

But once she was my baby girl,
My first born, love of my life.
But now she is a woman
And just became his wife.

Once she was my baby girl,
Loved her daddy and her toys;
But then, I couldn't stop it,
She grew up and loved the boys.

Today's my daughter's wedding day.
How fast the time did go;
From little feet and Sesame Street,
To a wedding gown, it flowed.

From golden locks and lollipops,
She grew up straight and tall.
From baby things to a wedding ring;
How I loved her through it all.

And now she will go forward,
To enter married life.
To share the good and bad times,
The happiness, and the strife.

I wish them both the best of luck;
With a prayer that my eyes will see
That God will Bless them with a baby girl,
Just like he gave to me...
