Today is a gift
a gift to all of us.

By your expression of love,
by your commitment to one another
we receive.

By your expanding love for one another,
we too are embraced.

As the house of your love turns into a mansion
not only are you sheltered and cherished,
so are we.

Hand in hand, as you take the road together
in friendship and in joy
we follow your beautiful lead.

May each of you know
the exact word
of comfort for the other,
the healing hand in illness,
the embrace of light
that dissolves all sorrow and all fear.

May you see with perfect clarity
the best in one another.

It is an easy task for us to bless you
and wish you well,
for you are already blessed in love
with the gift of one another
