The Wedding Bell

A daughter is always the small child of her father. When she gets married.....we know the pain of getting apart from our family.

The Wedding Bell

Tring,tring, the wedding bell rings

Outside the window the lovely bird sings

Such a lovely day the morning brings

getting attached to the new string.

 

I open my eyes, look at the date,

Oh my God,its gonna be late.

Quick for a bath, take another hour,

Another one hour, that’s a lengthy shower.

 

I must look, the prettiest among pretty,

In the centre of crowd, I would be kitty.

With beauty at its best,

I come out of the nest.

 

It’s my wedding day,

From all that way,

Towards a new home, for a new life.

I’ll be transformed from daughter to wife.

 

In the thick of crowd my head bend,

upon the locket he ties the thread.

Some time with dad, can I spend?

There’s no excuse he’s my only friend.

Time to depart

Feeling stuck inside heart.

When others smiled I cried,

The reason I give, because am bride.

 

My eyes search for my father,

But no one seems a bit to bother.

I search, I hunt then I cry,

like I was giving my last try.

 

I feel so sad,

I don’t see dad,

I sense loneliness,

My father’s my weakness.

 

Tring tring, the alarm bell rings,

Outside the window, the bird still sings.

 The happiest day, my husband brings.

I see my father, that’s a big thing.

Avantika you just got me this is really not quite a new matter but the way you penned it made tear a little. I really fearing to face this I don't know will I gather the strenth or not but fearing a lot. Nicely written and heart touching being more attached to parents and specially dad ( till today we fight like kids for simple matters ) separating from them is really very hard.

Interesting and an emotional read Avantika! I can feel what you meant, reminded me of a friend's wedding and this aptly described what she went through..

[K.N. Thorn]

This one was a little harder to read as there was words missing in some places and I had to assume what they were. It is a nice wedding poem I enjoyed it.
