Dear Subscriber:
Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of
view. The theme for this week is weddings.
I welcome comments on my poems at https://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com

A wedding poem about how wedding bells ring for everyone:
The bells ring not for just these
two
Who will be joined
in love today.
They also ring for
me and you.
And not just for
the families who
Now celebrate, as
well they may.
The bells ring not
for just these, too.
And not just those
who know or knew
These families
well, who came their way.
They also ring for
me and you.
And not just those
who came to view
The bride, the groom,
the whole array.
The bells ring not
for just these, too.
And not just those
whose love is true,
Or those who would
their doubts allay.
They also ring for
me and you.
For all are joined
in love, and do
Rejoice to hear the
sweet bells play!
The bells ring not
for just these two.
They also ring for
me and you.
