Husband and wife
A chance,
A meeting,
A small wind of softness,
A small spark,
Stars in the eyes,
It is all that it is necessary,
To fall in love.
A little sun,
A little rain,
A seed,
Ground,
It is all that it is necessary,
To give birth to love.
A well deserved reward,
An exchange of body,
Each one now,
Have a little of the other,
To help each other,
To understand each other,
To respect each other,
A double yes,
Two lives,
Linked,
Cannot be separated,
It is that,
It is now,
It is happy.
Congratulations,
You are now,
Husband and wife.

Poem detailed explanation:

So first before being husband and wife you need to meet so I felt it was only fair to start by that, this one compared to the others is shorter in it's sentences, and doesn't have any cuts, it's a one piece short and quick. As I'm a very romantic guy I continued with some romantic images, like the wind in her hairs to make it more attractive. Also I wanted to make the reader feel that these two people really are going to marry one day, so the first meeting should be pretty special so I really emphasized on it by adding details like, the stars in the eyes, and as the saying that says "I can read in your eyes like in an open book". Then I built upon it to show that the relation is growing, with comparisons with a flower, if you plan a flower, you bring it water, sun and good care it will bloom, so it's exactly what I wanted the reader to feel. The I couldn't go past the sex part, but I didn't really emphasize too much on it, it's more like a segway into another part of the poem. Then to continue being together you need trust, understanding and respect. Then goes the moment where the two people say yes to each other, it's a very strong thing to do, so I really emphasized on it, and then just finished by saying what everyone would say in this situation: Congratulations.

This one is not from a picture, but some a piece of lived life, life is so full of experiences that you can create a poem about anything in life.
