This is a momentous
occasion,
As we begin a new
phase in our life;
For tonight, Stuart
confirms his desire,
To make the lovely
Sancha his wife.
It seems not so long
that with mischief,
He had Gwen and I
wondering what next;
Would he skin his
knees once again?
For he often had us,
more than vexed.
Would he try once again
to taste caterpillar,
Which made his little
lips swell so much?
Or see if Mr Spider
was home?
Poking a finger down
its web, ‘Just to touch’.
But as he matured,
he grew wiser,
Never one to stick
out in a crowd,
He just got on with
life, and worked hard,
And made us so terribly
proud.
It has taken some years
to find love,
Love that will surely
endure;
And that love is also
returned,
Of that I am so very
sure.
Sancha, we could ask
no better,
Than to have you as
his darling wife;
And it seems that
the handsome young Joshua.
Will be the delight
of our life.
I know you both treat
this commitment,
As seriously as you
both should;
And I’m sure the results
of this union,
Will bode nothing
but good.
Our heartfelt congratulations
to you both,
There is not much
more I can say,
But may the good Lord
give you his blessing,
And may your love
grow stronger each day.
