A Unique Wedding Gift A great idea for every wedding, A Gift of Poetry is a truly special way of expressing your innermost thoughts and feelings.
(Here's a good example of what can be achieved. I actually wrote this one a few month's back but I didn't want to publish it before the wedding. This is a sad but inspirational tale. Tanya wanted to say something at her sister's wedding, especially as they'd lost their Dads and they obviously weren't going to be there (or so they thought :o). Tanya has kindly given her permission for her poem and story to be published)
But Nobody Can
What is your name :
Tanya Thompson
But Nobody Can
Hello, Audra and Dave, can
you hear us?
Can you hear us there on
planet Earth?
Because we just wanted to say
"we love you",
as we do know your true and
honest worth.
Look, we've missed yours and
Tanya's weddings,
but we had no choice, God
works in mysterious ways,
and we're sorry, we're not
there in person,
especially on this, the most
special of days.
But we're still so excited
for the pair of you,
because you do make such a
remarkable team,
so go on, don't worry about
us, we're okay,
go ahead and live out that
matrimonial dream.
Look Audra, we were always
very close,
and we'll always be with you,
wherever you go,
just know that we're very
proud of you,
but there's a few other
things that you should know:
Audra, throughout our lives,
we've always been proud of you,
so now it's strange to be
here, in the heavens above,
just know that we do miss you
so very much,
and we know that for
eternity, we'll always have your love.
Honestly, it's not too bad up
here at all,
even though we didn't get
to see yours or Tanya's dress,
and although we really do
wish we could be there with you,
we want to wish you both a
lifetime of happiness.
So, now it'll be Dave, Audra,
TJ, Brady and Will,
and to be honest, that's a
really great start,
as we know you'll all make a
wonderful family,
as you'll now be joined
forever, heart to heart.
Never go to bed when you're mad with each other,
always settle your differences before the days have their end,
and by the way, Tanya says that she's very happy for you both,
(you're more than a sister,
Audra, you're her very best friend).
Actually, this poem was from
her too,
and she helped us to put it
all together,
just know that we're all very
proud of you,
and that our love and pride
will last forever and ever.
Tanya says she's glad to be
gaining a nephew and brother in law,
and she's glad that you two
found one another,
because Audra and Tanya have
always been very close,
and now Audra's found her
soul-mate, her lifetime lover.
We also know what we once had
and have now lost,
but we guess that's another
story that needs to be told,
just know that we're very
happy for you, we love you very much,
and guess what? There are
indeed paves of gold.
So, we're practicing our
dance steps on them,
please order a beer and a
Korbel and Coke if you're at the bar,
just know that if our love
for you were a distance,
then it would be further than
the furthest star.
We're sorry that some of the
tears today are for us,
as you know, our departures
were way before the wedding plan,
and we never thought we'd
miss anyone this much,
if only we could turn the
clocks back (but nobody can).
So, we guess the only choice
is to keep looking forward,
to keep looking forward to
what married life has in store,
Dave, Audra, just know that
you have our love today,
and that you'll always have
that love, for evermore.

As I mentioned, I wrote this one a couple of months back. This is the lovely feedback I received on August 31st 2005: "Hello I don't know if you remember me but you did a poem for me for my sisters wedding, it's called But Nobody Can. You are more than welcome to put it on your web site, I also want to tell you that my sister and her husband loved it among everyone that was there that night at the wedding, I had a little trouble reading it cause I couldn't stop crying!!! There wasn't a dry eye in the crowd when I got done, be looking for me again cause my little brother graduates next year and he is very special to me cause he was born on my Birthday, once again allen thanks a million for making my sisters day, to hear from my fathers from the heavens above!! Tanya Thompson"
