Cold Feet

Dress in the closet,

Eye-brows are done,

Invites are sent,

I love you so, hun!

Gifts are packed,

The menu is spun,

The venue is decked up,

Oh darling, we can't be outdone!

Bridesmaids look gorgeous,

and friends are having fun;

The uncles and aunties,

you bet, are overdone!

Dress is now out,

Fake lashes, a breathtaking bun,

Stars on my lips,

Soon, I won't be a maiden!

As I slip on the dress,

A change in my disposition,

As I look in the mirror,

Red's my complexion,

Spiders crawl my back,

Stomach's in contraction,

I wonder if I can do this,

But, I love you so, hun!

It's time to walk down the aisle,

and my feet are frozen;

My body's all ice,

but, I love you so, hun!

From Miss to Mrs.,

the leap's a big one;

From this house to that,

a change of foundation!

The life that's gone by,

a kaleidoscopic procession;

The life that's to come,

coz of you, a worthy proposition!

You my darling, are

the sign on the side of the mountain;

With you on my side,

I'm ready for this expedition!
