THIS POEM WAS WRITTEN FOR MY DAUGHTER, EVA, UPON HER WEDDING DAY:
EVA’S WEDDING DAY
When you were born, I knew from the start
You were a special girl, near to my heart
Your compassionate spirit and engaging smile
Brightened my days and helped me go another mile
As you grew up and blossomed like a sunflower
You touched many lives as you rose like a tower
I asked God to help you find your calling
Protect you from harm and keep you from falling
From the age of six, you had no mom in your life
Sometimes you were filled with confusion and strife
You didn’t let these obstacles stand in your way
And now you are approaching your wedding day
I pray that you and Jack would truly be one
Help each other as your life’s race is run
Eva, I’m proud of you as I can be
You are a beautiful woman and dear to me
I love you very much and pray for the best
That God has to offer from the east to the west
May he grant you your heart’s wishes
And give you beautiful children to dirty your dishes
Put God in your home and in everything
He will bless you as you put on your wedding ring
Eva and Jack, united as husband and wife
Walk together happily on the path of life.
Dad
