The Island of Logic

Here is a poem that I wrote for my cousin’s wedding, per the request by their parents.

Regina and Calvin

There in her school chair
And while playing Red Rover
Those snappy eyes and brown hair
His heart melted over

It started with the glance
And then a quick smile
And with the hope of a chance
He walked the last mile

With the courage of a mouse
And the love of a song
He went to her house
And took her along

And there at the Ruby Tuesday
From across the table
Began a love to stay
And so started this fable

Now here we are today
With family and friend
From near and far away
To celebrate, this day

Now may God bless and keep
You through the days ahead
And through paths dark and steep
Remember the words He said:

“And if one prevail against him,
two shall withstand him;
and a threefold cord
is not quickly broken.”
(Ec. 4:12, KJV)
