Countdown to Five Years~#3

My sweet friend Becca wrote this poem and shared it with everybody at our rehearsal dinner.

'Twas the night before the wedding, and all through the house
The bride wasn't sleeping, nor her soon-to-be spouse.
Her viel was placed with the bedstand with care
Beside her toothbrush, makesup, & stuffed teddy bear.
The bridesmaids were nestled, all snug in their beds
While visions of bouquets danced through their heads.
When up in the steeple they heard such a clatter
The belsl started ringing, and the caterer scattered.
The Minnesota sun made the chapel glass glow
It gave light to the Taylor Sounds practicing below.
As fast as loved sons & daughters grow to leave the nest,
Northwestern chapel was filled with guests.
Hi Kal! Hi Missy! Hi Susie! Hi Tim!
It's great to have you at the union of Bergstroms and Rinns.
To the back of the aisle your attention should fall,
Here comes the bride, radiant & tall.
With a tear on her cheek & the side of her nose
Up the congregation rose!
With a wink of Dave's eye & a turn of his head
Bethany knew she had a lifetime of love ahead
The preacher spoke many words, so blessed was his work,
He married the Rinns and looked forward to dessert.
He said, "I now prounounce you husband and wife,"
And I add, God bless you and have a good life!
