Wedding Bell Blues

The date has been set
my heart is still racing
the time left is short
my mind's floor,  I'm pacing

So glad I can write
and proudly shout out
I'm ablaze with excitement
I must let it out.

To wonder the feel
on my finger, your ring
to tell all the world
as your song,  I shall sing

I finally found  
someone,  all my own
A lover who's faithful
who's eyes never roam

A gentle sweet soul
that soothes me, yet shakes me
A touch like pure lotion
that cures me, yet quakes me

I truly am proud
that I'll soon be his wife
he's  all that I prayed for
and longed for,  in life

A lover who's gentle
when gentle is needed
yet hot as a furnace
my needs,  far exceeded

I've ordered my gown
a white fitted bodice
with sequins and  pearls
quite daring , yet modest

The skirt  flares all wide
with ballerina  netting
dusted with sparkle
from a fairy tale setting

My veil was derived
from a sweet angel's breath
gossamer gauze
of dew's frozen depth

My ring shines with diamonds
from a princess cut treasure
set in the gold
that we chose together

We've chosen the chapel
The bridesmaids and flowers
The music and candles
we're counting the hours

Yes, the hours seem endless
till the Wedding Bells Chime
when we join in sweet rapture
when our 'yours'  become  'mine'

I'm getting release
with the help of this muse
I almost can't wait
Got the wedding bell blues
