Marriage of my best friend

There she is
Entering the willow doors in that fine white piece
The crowds died down, and all heads turned to her
She shone like a beam of crystallized lights
This was her day and her wedding.

Love went flying throughout the air
Everyone felt it
The happiness, nervousness, anticipation, and her moment of spotlight.
Walking down the aisle was my best friend.

Her beauty transcends borders
Her aura felt gentle
It felt like her.

Warmth bloomed like the slow edged of water flowing.

The priest spoke, and emotions spurred
Cameras were flicking, and crowds were in awe
The day is finally here
It's finally happening in front of everyone
And in front of me.

Memories flashed in a blur
Our memories, from since day one
Our laughters, our peace, our bond, our difficulties
All that you can think of from more than 10 years
Everything we knew of.

Every happiness, disappointment, cheering, exhaustion, inspiration, pain, motivation, hopelessness, and memories. The beauty of it all.

Have time really fled this fast?

The view in front of me began to blur
Like water trickling down my iris without a window shield
I breathedㅡcalmly before smiling
This is her show, it's her moment, and it's her time.

She deserved all the good things
She's a princess to be pampered
A woman to be loved dearly
An innocent child to give the world to
And most of all, a best friend to be cherished.

Looking at her, a lot of thoughts went through mine
The biggest one was my appeal to the Great God.
Please bless them with eternal love in this lifetime.

May their life be filled with the senerities of lilies.

No one knows what may happen after marriageㅡ responsibilities, beginnings, and priorities.
One thing for sure; she's always my best friend.
May the Good Lord protect her and her equal always, and may our bond as friendship be just as unbreakable.

To my best friend, I love you.
May God be on both of your sides, always.

Hi there and welcome!
You have such a pretty username!

First of all, I really loved the imagery, happiness and pure joy that this poem brings!

There she is
Entering the willow doors in that fine white piece
The crowds died down, and all heads turned to her!
She shone like a beam of crystallized lights
This was her day and her wedding.


Dynamic, gentle, beautiful beginning
I loved this so much! But just one teeny tiny critique: shouldn't crystallized lights be crystallized light? Hmmm....

And most of all, a best friend to be cherished.

These were my favourite parts; they showed us how much you loved your best friend, and prayed to God for them to have eternal life...

This is a beautiful piece of writing which I enjoyed very much!

Hey, Noirmont here to review!

I couldn't help but smile at this sweet, sweet piece of writing! How special it must be to see your best friend get married -- what a lovely subject for a poem. It makes me giddy to imagine how excited you must have been. It seems to have brought up quite a few memories for you and gave you the opportunity to be introspective during a time of such happiness, which is so heartwarming :,) I know I keep saying it, but I'm so glad you wrote this, and I hope you share it with your friend (if you don't feel it's too personal)! I think they would love it.

I think that your inclusion of your faith really brings home how important this moment/day was for you and added an increased personal touch to your work. I really enjoy this line:

Every happiness, disappointment, cheering, exhaustion, inspiration, pain, motivation, hopelessness, and memories. The beauty of it all.
It sums up well, I think, the variation of emotions you're attempting to portray and how they have all culminated into this moment. And how even strife can appear beautiful when it culminates in such a happy moment.

Overall, really personal, touching work! Thank you for sharing, and I'm looking forward to see what you write next.

Thank you Noirmont for your honest review! I'm appreciative of your heartwarming comment and feedback for my work. I've had the inspiration to write and put together a thoughtful poem based on her wedding so we both can remember the sweet and memorable moments when I was there to support her.

And yes, I've shared this poem to her before I made it to publish here; I'm really glad that my poem left her in awe and she really loved the finalized work.

Thank you once again and for looking forward to my next writing!

I will stop by your portfolio as well as I'm happy to review your works. All the best!
