Under the veil with face demure
The girl blushed yet she was sure
That this was the magic day when she
Would be wedded to Him, for all to see

They met on a plane a year before
Talked throughout and weren't bored
So many interests they shared
And even if not, they each cared

So there He stood beneath the arbor
She focused on Him, her safe harbor
The maids and groomsmen before her
Quartet strings sang, soothing, tender

Right foot first, then left, then right
Steadied by her proud father; tight
She felt two hundred eyes upon her
Yet, except for Him, it all was a blur

The altar had seemed quite a mile
But what?.. There was no more aisle
Time to look at Him, repeat their words
Accept his ring, let fly the birds

For family union, light their candles
Next week, on the beach in sandals

White veils are traditional in the West
They signal the purity of the bride
Choose one that answers your personal quest
And your personal taste and custom abide

Miles and miles of lace
To cover up my face
And for the lengthy train
God help me if it stains
I hope that I don't trip
On wet grass I don't slip
I hope the vows are heard
And don't sound too absurd
I want to fling the lace
Away from my bridal face
I want to bare my lips
Like in the movie scripts
I want to have that kiss
And be Mrs 'stead of Miss

Oh my daughter with such bright eyes
The ivory highlights your golden skin
We're off to your wedding at sunrise
Here's your veil, dear, let's not be rushin'

More Wedding Poetry by MyFairLadyah

Keep hair short, demure; a cage veil with tulle
Like Audrey Hepburn looking French
The right gal will earn cinq etoiles
Exactly opposite of a country wench

White petals, white petals from the crab apple tree
Will you make a tender snow in May just for me
Would you make me an aisle, for my wedding day
And shade the elders from sun's burning rays
