Wedding Day Jitters

Man and woman both have wedding day jitters!

 

She wakes from a peaceful slumber,

with butterflies in her stomach,

her nerves are on edge.

Today is her wedding day.

 

She sighs with anticipation for

what is ahead, but something is

distrubing her pleasant thoughts.

Could she have cold feet?

or be having doubts?

 

Her heart begins to flutter, as

she discovers she has the

wedding day jitters.

Suddenly the adventure ahead

frightens her to death.

 

The church is all decorated.

The guests are on the way.

The cake with the bride and groom

on top awaits.

Everyone is ready for the

happy event, but the bride!

 

She thinks of her husband to be,

wondering if he's got cold feet.

Are is the wedding day jitters

just for brides?

*************

He sits in the church ,

with sweat on his brow.

His stomach is in knots.

Today is his wedding day.

 

He sighs with desire for

what is ahead, but his feelings

aren't quite right.

Could he have cold feet?

or be having doubts?

 

His breath catches in his throat,

as he discovers he has the 

wedding day jitters.

Suddenly the adventure ahead

scares him to death.

 

The guests are here.

The cake is ready.

Everyone is ready and

waiting for the happy

event, but the groom!

 

He thinks of his wife to be,

wondering if she's got cold feet

Are is the wedding day jitters

just for grooms?

 

She stares at herself in the

mirror all dressed  in white.

He stands at the alter all

dressed and waiting.

 

The wedding march starts.

The groom feels faint.

The bride can hardly walk.

As she heads toward him

he smiles with glee.

Her eyes grows misty as 

she starts to weep.

 

The bride and groom look

into each others eyes, each

lost in the glory that's ahead.

Once was the wedding day jitters

has turned into the wedding day bliss.

AWWW! This is so sweet and loving. I love that you split the poem showing both the brides and grooms emotions, their fears and then in the end once they see the other there is no room for doubt. So romantic and sincere. Great read!

Yes a cute poem with a nice flow. I agree I am sure both have jitters that all cured as soon as the wedding starts.
