The Bride

BY CYNTHIA GREY

Sunshine, fragrance, everywhere;

Tender green of fluttering leaves above;

And the heart of maiden fair

Raised in silent, tender prayer,

As she consecrates her life to love.

Half in hope and half in fear.

Love, to give, is such a mighty thing.

While her voice is calm and clear,

Through her smile there gleams a tear,

As the vow is sealed with wedding ring.

Roses kiss the altar rail,

Where she kneels with strangely beating

heart.

Under rippling bridal veil

Tremble lips that dare not fail

In the sacred, "Until death do part."
