Poems That Speak Love

You will find that poems, blessings, words from a song or even words from a play or movie may come in handy when you are writing wishes to the new married couple.  They can be a nice way of expressing yourself when you have a hard time coming up with the words on your own.  Feel free to use these examples of poems for your speech, toast, in your congratulations card or anything else that seems appropriate.

 

Reading from the Bible

Love is patient, Love is kind,

It does not envy, it does not boast,

It is not proud, it is not rude,

It is not self-seeking,

It is not easily angered,

It keeps no record of wrongs.

    Love does not delight in evil,

but rejoices with the truth.

    Love always protects, always trusts,

always hopes, always perseveres.

    Love bears all things, believes all things,

hopes all things, endures all things.

Love never ends.

    Lover never fails

(Corinthians 13:4-8)

 

Apache Wedding Blessing

Now you will feel no rain,

For each of you will be shelter to the other.

Now you will feel no cold,

For each of you will be warmth to the other.

Now there is no loneliness for you,

For each of you will be companion to the other.

Now you are two bodies,

But there is only one life before you.

Go now to your dwelling place,

To enter into the days of your togetherness.

And may your days be good

and long upon the earth.

Words from the play: Hamlet 

Doubt thou the stars are fire;

Doubt that the sun doth move;

Doubt truth to be a liar;

But never doubt I love.

William Shakespeare

 

Eskimo Love Song

You are my husband, you are my wife

My feet shall run because of you

My feet dance because of you

My heart shall beat because of you

My eyes see because of you

My mind thinks because of you

And I shall love, because of you.

 

Hope is the thing with Feathers

    Hope is the thing with feathers

That perches in the soul,

And sings the tune without the words,

And never stops at all,

    And sweetest in the gale is heard;

And sore must be the storm

That could abash the little bird

That kept so many warm.

    I've heard it in the chilliest land,

And on the strangest sea;

Yet, never, in extremity

It asked a crumb of me.

Emily Dickinson

 

 

 

Love’s Philosophy

The fountains mingle with the river, 

And the rivers with the ocean;

The winds of heaven mix forever,

With a sweet emotion;

Nothing in the world is single;

All things by a law divine

In one another's being mingle:-

Why not I with thine?

See! the mountains kiss high heaven,

And the waves clasp one another;

Now sister flower would be forgiven

If it disdained its brother;

And the sunlight clasps the earth,

And the moonbeams kiss the sea:-

What are all these kissing's worth,

If thou kiss not me?

Percy Shelley

 

To A Kiss

Humid seal of soft affections,
Tend'rest pledge of future bliss,
Dearest tie of young connections,
Love's first snow-drop, virgin kiss.
Speaking silence, dumb confession,
Passion's birth, and infants' play,
Dove-like fondness, chaste concession,
Glowing dawn of brighter day.
Sorrowing joy, adieu's last action,
Ling'ring lips, -- no more to join!
What words can ever speak affection
Thrilling and sincere as thine!
Robert Burns

 

The One

When the one whose hand you're holding

Is the one one who holds your heart

When the one whose eyes you gaze into

Gives your hopes and dreams their start,

When the one you think of first and last

Is the one who holds you tight,

And the things you plan together

Make the whole world seem just right,

When the one whom you believe in

puts their faith and trust in you,

You've found the one and only love

You'll share your whole life through.
