A Poem About US

This post was written by Julie Donley RN on July 12, 2010

For our wedding Lou and I asked people to share poems, passages or to write something that they would be willing to share with us about love, marriage, family…

People shared some beautiful thoughts and poems – which I will share with you in future posts.

At night, after the wedding, Lou asked me why we didn’t write something to each other. We had been focusing on our nuptuals. He had difficulty sleeping and when he got up in the morning, he wrote this to me about our journey together – his first poem ever! Who knew he could write so beautifully? I have a feeling there is much more to him…

Let me know your thoughts. Enjoy -

Your partner for success,

US

Kids

Children going to school

A friendship is made

 

Parents

Meeting on a playground

A friendship is born

 

Trust

Earned as sleepovers come and go

years pass as days go by

 

Death. Divorce …Change

 

One moves, another further

Friendship dormant, but never forgotten

Life goes on

 

Fate

Friendships missed

A knock on the door, one afternoon

 

Lunch

Friendships strengthened

Realizations revealed

 

The night my world changed

 

Thoughts

In my dreams

In my arms

 

The line is broken

Friendship becomes something more

Is this true

 

Years pass

Love breaks through

Families unite

 

Time progresses

The question asked

Rings bought

 

Finally

The day comes

A day to remember

 

Me

Confident and successful

 

You

Confident and successful

 

US

Forever more

To the love of my life

Wow!
How wonderful! The poem says it all, so clearly!!
Lou, do you have any unattached brothers (for me)?! (who are equally gifted in poetry writing and romance?!)
Hope the two of you have a long blessed life together!

Wow. Absolutely profound and beautiful. I would say you are lucky to have each other, except that it is clear that you have co-created this journey together. What an inspiration. Thank you.

Thank you Jeanne. Yes, we have co-created this journey. I don’t know that there is any other way to experience an amazing relationship – both parties have to be partners in its creation. Thanks for sharing!
