Kelly wrote us a poem:

On the Occasion of Our Wedding

There is no love like this;

no hand that moves as mine,
no soul that calms
with the same quiet
wonder at the beauty
of God's good earth.

You are mine
from today until forever
and I am yours.

Rivers in flood
will crest and fall,
the full moon grow
weary of her fullness
and wane.

But for us
there will be no diminishing,
no ebb, no bright phoenix
to rise in new birth
from red fires, for
what death can touch us now?

Such grace that I have
found you who I never
thought to find.

We are blessed.
We are one.

There is no love like this.
