We take a chance on love
Leave worry behind
We will be brave explorers
on this wonderful path
We can admit it all,
our love and our flaws.
We will be honest and true,
dedicated and steadfast believers.
And though we are joyful now
we approach this commitment
with seriousness, aware of
the frailty of our hearts
and willing to put forth
everything — all beliefs
and dreams, visions and plans
We are not afraid, we are
joyful and gleefully united
And really, we have been
for weeks. Today we celebrate
our love out loud, sharing it
with the listening universe
gratefully
