~My Only One!~
I can think of no other
To love me true,
To bring to the table
An offer my heart and mind,
Could not refuse.
Even as I listen
To my God’s songs of praises,
On shuffle
I can look at you,
And know
That next to him,
I’ve got you.
That you’ve been sent
Into my life,
From him
Because he remembered,
The price paid.
So we can save each other
Building on faith and unity,
Created from a bse that’s the same
Knowing that if God is Love,
And we put him first
Then through him,
Everything we’ve got
And everything we build on,
Starts’ from there!
I look at you and see
You are my Prize,
For where my love and Glory
And strength kept my,
Hearts’ eye, centered on.
Learning from this
What is important in this life!
Keeping focused on what’s right
Produces a swelling of love,
That grows and burns
With a Pride and Power,
That gives one the confidence
That this race can be won.
And when I laid my eyes on you
For the first time,
I knew all my dreams
Were about to come true,
Because of all the years
Tried and tested,
That I knew to hang on.
So I just kept on course
With my visions and aspirations,
Everything starts from knowing
Who you are, when you are young,
And what you know you want to be.
When you do the work
Fate and timing,
And the Good Lord Above
Does the Rest,
If you just keep on believing
In him, in Love, and your dreams,
No matter what may be happening
To make things hard in life,
If we write it upon the souls
Of our youth,
As we grow,
The laws of attraction
Will begin to spin its wheels,
And our steps will be guided
Whether fast or slow,
To the life we want
No matter the bumps or curve balls,
We will reach our place and time
Like today,
That tells us, we’ve found the one
And the life we’ve been looking for,
Working so hard to reach!
So now we have the rest of our lives
To grow in
Wisdom and experience, together,
To take on the world
And the rest of life,
And stay on top of it all!
It’s amazing to know
That even though,
We don’t know or see
What’s inside the deepest.
Parts of our thoughts
Feelings and desires,
That heaven knows
God can see,
Into the hearts of all!
He does not forget
When one’s,
Intentions are good.
Though time may pass
And we forget or stop,
Thinking of these dreams
We left in the past,
Our guardian Angels
Have not,
Forgotten…
It is in their hands
On when 2 paths will cross,
And the perfect timing
Comes to be.
So here we are today,
You’re looking at me
And my looking at you,
It leaves me without words
That I can speak.
Looking at the Good in you
‘Just’ leaves me breathless…
And I wonder
When you’re looking at me
What’s going on inside,
Your soul
Is there a need,
To Quench a fire
That you’ve yet to Show?
So I wait in anticipation
Through staying the course,
In the parts we are playing
What the outcome will be?
All through, and in the name
Of Love!
Just like a child
We must hold onto,
The innocence
Of the Love we hold dear,
And have treasured for so long…
As we pressed forward
To a life unknown,
That today
God has answered,
The prayers too
When he put your life in mine,
And my life in yours.
All that hard work
In the lives we lived
Without the other,
Doing our part
To meet heaven,
Half way
Allowed for today,
To now be possible!
So this I now celebrate
As we take our vows,
And a life eternal
Ahead,
That waits…
For us to experience
In the greatest adventures,
Yet still to live through
Now that we are together!
Now that we can walk
Hand in hand,
And the glorious
Sun can shine down,
On us.
And light the way
Sharing the glowing beauty
And greatness and wonder,
Of what love can do!
What excitement there is
In thinking about being,
Able to give others
This same gift…
One of joy, love and peace
And they too reach,
Their own special day
Like we have now!
So I give my heart
In testimony to you,
Here and now
In these words,
Of my enduring and unfailing
Love for you,
My dear…
You are simply
My dream come true!
And I plan to spend
The rest of my life,
Giving you this too
And so much more.
In our world to come
There will be laughter,
And song, slow dances,
Picnics, Great food,
And a life that feels
Like we’ve got Forever,
To live.
Where we can spend that time
In the wonderful outdoor world,
Of nature and celebrate
All the things we have,
In common…
And yes all life that abounds there
In Spring Fever too.
All made by the Great
Creator of these things,
God!
What a thing to rejoice in
Thinking about all that brings it,
Together
Under one roof and place,
For all of time!
When his grace is our
Guiding light,
He lets us know
That we can trust him,
With our lives
He gives us the courage,
To know we’ll find
Our way through,
Whatever comes;
Reminded so easily
In the love I see,
When you Smile at me
From ear to ear,
When you look at me
With your eyes,
So Deep…
When they shine back
At me,
With those Marvelous stars,
Within them
That Flicker and Sparkle,
Back
What you’re saying,
What you’re feeling
Without words!
It’s there I know
One thing is true,
That though it may
Have taken,
Half our lives
To reach this time,
When I look at you
Now…
I know it’s true
That You Are,
My Only One!
You wipe out every tear
I’ve ever cried,
All the pain I’ve lived through
In that lifetime,
Disappears in you;
With you by my side
I know today,
I will win this fight
Living in the great New World,
We’re now in Together.
It’s sure to be grand
Because,
Everyday the blessings
We give and feel,
Are true and real!
I’m so happy and grateful
To know,
Through your testimony
Of time,
And your gentleness
Towards me,
Knowing my life
Has been rough,
That I am your
Only One too!
Two people
May be all we are,
In this world
But brought through vows,
Spoken by each other
To a Place,
That’s even closer,
In reaching this day
We are now family!
So I’ve got to be thankful
For what this beautiful canvas,
Standing there blank
Before the rest our lives,
And what that means for us
The work of art,
That we’ll one day display there
A work of art created between us,
For the life we now make
Knowing its a gift,
The time that graces
And blesses our lives,
Today and everyday;
Taking each day 1 at a time
Nothing taken for granted,
And not a moment to waste!
May it be a work of art
A painting and picture,
That never ends in its
Changes of beauty,
Growth and Aww…
That through it all
It repeats,
The same message,
The same story
The same song,
Again and again and again
How much we care,
How we feel and what we see
When we look at one another,
And live with the other
In each moment of time,
We live through
That’s left,
Gifted to us.
That these same words
Come to mind…
‘I love you’
And are written there
In the work,
FOREVER!
Above or below
The same wonderful,
Story retold
That comes from our hearts,
And our souls
That no other words
Can say so easily,
Except these, that
‘You are my only one’
And that Victory is Sure!
Happy endings
Can come true…
As we say the words
“I do!”
The End!
