… on this happening
August 02, 2017
Was This Real Life?*
Was it really two weeks ago…
That I was fluffing your dress, my beautiful daughter
Daddy’s little girl.
Did it all really happen…
Realizing it was just an hour before you would say “I do” to the man of your dreams
Me tip toeing out the back door to sneak a peek of Dad’s first look, seeing you in your dress for the first time
Feeling his eyes glisten when he saw you, wiping my eyes too.
Was I floating or walking…
When I finally took my seat down front
Passing by all those gathered, those who love you both so much
Waiting for the show.
Is it settling in yet for you…
For him
That you jumped once again
Together
Into a marriage of adventure and beauty
And wonder.
I may need some more time to sit with it…
Let it all sink in
So much love in a single place
At one time.
I could sip and savor it for the rest of my days…
And there would still be enough to spill out onto the world.
Thanks for readin.
