Marriage
I imagined I was in a woods so pretty, and found a ribbon hanging from a tree, and when I got close, there were words written on it, that said 'take hold and follow me.'
Now I was curious as to where it might lead, so I picked it up in my hand, and gathering it up, I started to follow, would it lead to a new and strange land?
It followed a path that I didn't know, it wandered up and down, here and there, and all the while I was holding I, I felt that I didn't have a care.
The ribbon led to a little glen deep inside the woods, and it circled around a little seat that was there, and I sat down as I knew I should.
It was so quiet and peaceful there, I just sat and let the silence come near, and listening hard, suddenly I heard the most beautiful music in my ear.
Filled with joy, I danced around that glen, wrapping the ribbon all around me, and then I ran, following where it led, knowing there was happiness waiting for me.
The ribbon ended at the edge of a pond, and there you were, arms full of love so true, and the wonder of it all just made my heart soar, for you were my dream come true.
The ribbon was God's love and grace, helping me to follow only Him, and the music I heard was the melody of His word, giving me joy that would never dim.
And if I kept on, happiness would be mine, for God's plan was a perfect one,
and when we met, fell in love and married, this part of His plan was done.
Now there are new ribbons to hold new paths to follow hand in hand together, and surrounding us both is the gift of love, one that would be with us both forever.
How can I thank God for all this wonder, for all these dreams come true? I'll make my life be a living 'thank-you' card, by always showing how much I love you!
