cake fall picture wedding

Drink makes you fall over,
it's staggering the effect that it has,
you simply lose your sense of balance,
(and your chic, your style and your pizzazz).

And I'll never forget our beautiful, so perfect wedding,
I don't remember ever feeling as happy as I did on that day,
I will never forget the way you looked at me as you spoke,
your eyes said everything that you needed to say.

You love those old black and white movies,
and from Cleveland, you've travelled afar,
and I think our wedding song was simply perfect,
because you are loved: "Just the way you are"

I have so much love, respect and admiration for you,
and every day, you prove just how much you truly care,
and if I could visualize the perfect husband,
well, my mind would conjure up a picture of you standing there.

94 wonderful years full of hard work, fun and excitement,
(NAME) was the last of her generation and truly loved by all,
she celebrated life and taught us all to do the same,
and to pick yourself up whenever you stumble or fall.

You wrote and read a poem at your father?s service,
and you spoke about him missing your wedding day,
and although that one line expresses so much,
it still means there's so much left to say:

And I will also always be there for you,
if you ever need a shoulder or a helping hand,
divided we shall fall and be conquered,
but together and united we will make a stand.

Because in no time at all we were off to Vegas,
thanks to the enormous generosity of our friends,
$36.00 worth of pennies and a double wedding later,
but that's not quite where this story ends.

I have so much love, respect and admiration for you,
and every day, you prove just how much you truly care,
and if I could visualize the perfect husband, the perfect father,
well, my mind would conjure up a picture of you standing there.

I give you my love forever true,
my truest ever words, spoken on our wedding day,
and "Idioma" or "Pansy", I love you,
but I do have a couple of other things to say:

And we know you just wanted to go to Las Vegas,
you didn't really want a party, let alone a cake,
but we wanted to say "thank you" in a special way,
so here's another clue, let's call it a wake.

So thanks for teaching me how to dream,
thanks for teaching me to get up after a fall,
Dad, just know that I love you very much,
you?re the King of Hearts, to Blue, the greatest one of all.

We started with a small affair at (WEDDING VENUE),
but a few months later we entertained around 1000 guests,
we sought the blessings of the Gods, our family and friends,
well, I reckon that, with honours, we've passed many of the tests

You're great with the kids and you care for us all,
and I know as children go, I am like the third,
but when you said "I do" on our wedding day,
well, they were the sweetest words I've ever heard.

Mom likes that you can sit and talk about anything,
but you're also happy just sitting with nothing to say,
either way, Mom feels most comfortable when you're near her,
Mom says her finest 24 hours were all on her wedding day.

Because I've tried to imagine the future without you,
but I see only dark, the picture never lasts,
so please, please let me back into your life,
and let us rekindle the magic of Valentines past.

And thankfully, it wasn?t a shotgun wedding,
but I do want to thank you for the most special day of my life,
just know that you?re still my anchor, my King of Hearts,
even though, after being shot at, (NAME) made me his wife.

I remember Ma insisting, against my mother's wishes,
at my wedding, I should have salami on the meat trays,
she certainly taught me to stand up for myself,
but I'm grateful to her in so many other ways.

You own a spa, massages, facials, make up,
personal training, you know, that sort of thing,
but there's something missing in your life,
even though you're wearing that wedding ring.

Picture a workaholic, hiking across the desert,
and that sort of sums up our "no bullshit" Dad,
he's a tough business man, "an accountant by trade",
but at selling toilets, he's not at all half bad.

Because over that year our love has evolved,
and it's grown to become this beautiful, living thing
and I just wanted to say that I'm proud of you,
I'm very proud that you're wearing my wedding ring.

Because we've got so much to be thankful for,
you attended most of our soccer games by far,
you ALWAYS drove me and my friends to the movies,
and our driving lessons would make you fall asleep in the car.

94 wonderful years full of hard work, fun and excitement,
Vivian was the last of her generation and truly loved by all,
she celebrated life and taught us all to do the same,
and to pick yourself up whenever you stumble or fall.

We've been apart since our wedding,
a cold wintry morning on (DATE)
but it's only our jobs and circumstance that could separate us,
because only with you, my world's a better place to be.
