Four intimate musicians

You are their friend

And you are their proclaimer

You name them man and wife


Their love for each other you reflect

With care, for friends and family

With love for the other onlookers


A proud smile, engaging

Clear words, well chosen, softly spoken

Yet heard in all the far corners


Heard in the depths

Of the chambers

And of the body


Laughter, tears, joy

Forever

So much celebration


A poem

Four intimate musicians

Children, each in shared contentment


A sense of purpose

Sent by chance and there caught

Captured without question


A marriage

A gathering of families

Old and young, young and old


Untold stories soon take hold

Into the afternoon and into the evening

And then further onwards, far into the night
