Analysis of To My Sister On Her Wedding Day



Time has gone and now your all grown up
Just want to tell you that I love you so much
Through the years as I have watched you change
Memories unfold and I am left amazed
Bountiful beauty inside and out
Your never above the person in doubt
You sister, mean the world to me
What a woman you''ve grown to be
Today you married the man of your dreams
My heart feels he is as true as he seems
So connected together and so in-tune
Admired by all, you consume a room
Your love is radiant and you are unaware
Captivated people stop and stare
Truly congenial together with open arms
An invitation is cast by your charm
I am truly privileged to have you both in my life
I stand taller when you're by my side
You walked down the aisle with such finesse
Proudly knowing you never settled for less
If a tear I shed on this day you wed
A drop of joy expressed for your future ahead
Show gratitude for this love so true
Believe its forever as you said "I Do"
