Invited to See into the window of their love
Invited to Hear the passion that fills her heart
Invited to Feel the joy that surprises the soul
I cry, contemplating the torment that would be hers
If forced to live a life without the right to express her love
Right hands patting left knees
Glances and smiles that shine with tears
Full hearts and reined-in sobs
The room vibrates with joy as flags wave
My throat tightens even as I remember
Someone brave enough to bare her soul
In a red barn with twinkle lights and Queen Anne's lace
The rain fell but there was never a brighter day
Best wishes for a full life to Megan and Sarah

I wish I had been there. Beautiful poem!
I'm crying and I don't even know them.
I'm crying all over again. Your poem is incredible. I am sending you a book of Pat's poems (inscribed) and I doubt there is one in there that tops your own. Thank you for your deep aknowledgement.
This is beautiful. I'm so glad you were there.
