Your writing is so tender and loved the dragon poem because it really gave me a sense of how much you love your Dragon, and what a large and special character he is (IS). I'm not sure if this is the first wedding you have been to since you lost your love (forgive me, I will read back through your posts over the weekend) but I am sure that you will be alright ... there will be moments when you gulp or may even need to disappear to the toilet. Just remember, be still, breathe breathe and it will pass, I promise (done it twice - weddings I mean) since I lost Cliff 8 months ago. The hardest moment for me personally was when I watched them exchange their vows because you can't help but remember your own, and then you remember your dreams, and the fact that they have been broken. I wish you strength and peace for the wedding.Boohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10695496303699631884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6580898742645753422.post-75831886845045862102009-09-10T22:28:40.375-04:002009-09-10T22:28:40.375-04:00lovely...beautiful and lovelylovely...beautiful and lovelyJudyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03399435237919718544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6580898742645753422.post-72791615470902031852009-09-09T17:06:58.642-04:002009-09-09T17:06:58.642-04:00Beautiful poem.

After reading the poem, I see it that the two of you were great together. He was a wonderful man and so good to you, but you also gave him much love and happiness in return.<br /><br />I found your poem very beautiful and a tribute to the mutual love you shared. I hope you can draw on this love (that is - was) in the days ahead as the wedding gets closer.Widow in the Middlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01598249263166943162noreply@blogger.com
