On this day
There was a wedding
In the church
Just down the way
It was a touching
Thing of beauty
A TRUE love
Was bound that day.

Their story is like a
Fairytale...
The man came here
To make a start
Learning of our
Lovely planet
To nurture it
And be a part.
He met the
Sweetest woman
Even then she
Took his heart.

Her interest is
Early music
A muse which
This man also loved
She loved Scotland
All things Scottish
The man was
All of the above!
They became friends
And found their
Hearts met...
They fit together
Hand in glove!

Then came time
For him to leave here
Couldn't stay
Within the States.
T'was time he
Returned to Scotland
But their love
Did not abate.

The lady had a
Real talent - was given
Scholarship and then
Went across the
Great Atlantic
To England's lovely
Shores and fens.
There, in London
At a concert
They saw each other!
Met again!

There, their love grew
Like a garden
He, a Thistle
She a rose...
Finally he could
Wait no longer
He bought a ring
And he proposed.

The two lovers
Met in Tucson
To Tucson
They returned, you see,
And in holy matrimony
Their love was bound
But, at last, freed!

Their blossoms joined
In bliss forever...

For their love was

*MEANT TO BE!
With love,
Cathy Jarvis

To my sister Christina  
And her husband Martin
On their 29th wedding
Anniversary (woot! woot!)

Blessings! May you have
Many more happy
Years together!

Martin it the Thistle
Because he's Scottish
