The Wedding Of My Dreams

The Wedding Of My Dreams

A Poem by Orlando Murcia

 

 

There you are,

 

 

Looking so breathtaking

 

in front of the sun

 

 

 

Your hair beams from reflection of  sunset


behind shades of wind

 

 

 

You are so beautiful !!

 

 

 

I walk slower than the sea turtles

 

in front of me

 

 

While dolphins


and every other sea creature look through

 

the glass of parted ocean

 

 

 

 

It's as if Moses split the Red Sea once again

 

 

 

 

Except the sea was not opened to deliver me from slavery

 

or any brutal King,

 

 

The sea parted so I may leave behind my past

 

and be with the one who I will forever be indebted to

 

 

 

You..

 

 

 

Yes, you my Queen       

 

 

 

As I walk towards the sandy altar,

 

I walk over purple glittered starfish

 

that risked their breath for the ones to be

 

 

 

Thank you star fish

 

 

 

Thank you my open sea

 

that made this wedding a possibility,

 

and every other living creature here           

 

 

 

but mostly you 

 

 

 

As the turtles drift into the oceans gleam,

 

I am now ready to commit my being

 

unto you and only you   

 

 

 

I take you by both hands,

 

that's the Que for the waters

 

to bow their heads above the sand

 

 

 

Now let us say I do

 

 

 

No need for ministers of faith

 

to declare us one,

 

but let us kiss in agreement

 

as I hold your pearl covered waist

 

from the dress that oysters birthed to place

 

 

 

Let us be in harmony and peace

 

and let the night never cease to fall asleep

 

 

May the celebration of our life begin

 

as we now place these lips as a promising of rings

 

 

 

We now pronounce each other

 

Husband and Queen

 

 

 

May the Heaven's smile,

 

as the dolphins that are no longer beneath us

 

jump over our heads

 

declaring our love


 

Inside,


the wedding of my dreams

If you are not already a husband, you will make a wonderful groom some day.
