A Modern Bridal Blessing

Intertwined

By Karen LaRuePublished 3 years ago 1 min read

May your mind be clear as you walk into this commitment

May the path ahead of you be free of fog

May you always feel free to speak what is in your mind and in your heart between you

May you listen with open ears and an open mind

And may you be heard in return

May your heart find freedom in security

May you love, and be loved, with undying passion

May you grow together, intertwined

But never merged

Making room for your sacred spaces

May all of your feelings be met with respect

As you tumble through this wild journey of life together

May your power never be overtaken

May your roots find fertile soil and plentiful water

To nourish each other from the very core of your souls

May your legs stand strong through the trials you might face

Knowing that you have a firm foundation in each other

May you never cease to feel the grass under your feet

Running with unbridled joy and feral abandon

Through the fields of gold that greet you

All the days of your life together
