Brandon and Morielle Danevicius were married on July 6 2008.
Wow that is weird... (I know it has already been almost 2 weeks, but I am still soaking it all up.)
After the wedding I realized how incredibly fast time goes by, and how I have all these memories about Morielle as fresh as the air I breath, but that are all now just the past. So I would like to post this poem that I wrote after the wedding, as I was trying to comprehend time and how it was the my sister is now a married woman.
Blink and it's gone
Just a few minutes ago you were taking your first breath
Everything was new and you couldn't even think of death
You blinked and it was all just the past
Now you are five, walking, talking, and everything happening so fast
Just a moment later you are blowing out ten candles on your birthday cake...
you are two digits now, with both hands counting your age
Blink and you'll see how many years time can take
Years passes by like seconds, and now you're a teen
dreaming about the future, as everyone does at 15
Don't wait another moment to savor every memory
Because then you'll blink and it will all be history
As quick as a breath five more years went by
And now you are walking with your daddy down the aisle
now ready for true love's first kiss
Just blink and you will see how many years you did miss
First five and then five more, and then ten years are gone like a bolt
You're forty now with a trail of kids behind you
your oldest an adult
With just one blink you saw how fast your children grew
Forty more years flew by like forty more seconds
A heart full of memories is all you have left
then when death was approaching and you didn't have long
It was then that you realized that you blinked and it was gone
After one moment you found what you waited your whole life to see
a place that no matter how many blinks
Time would stay still in happy eternity
This is not exactly Morielle's life it was just inspired by her wedding, and my revelation that because every blink means history, I have to savor life and spend it the best I can.
(Check back soon I am now hoping to keep my blog up more dutifully... and maybe if you persuade me I will start Saturday Sketches back up, (not that you want it or anything.) It just helps me to be more regular with my blog... we shall see... actually we shall blink. :)
God bless everyone!
