Our loved ones who’ve risen
and live now in the bless-ed skies of rose gold—
they beam down upon you two,
as we all who breathe are
smiling upon your grand
unification.
This day, you’ve both chosen to
tie your souls together before devoted eyes.
We are all bless-ed
witnesses
to these oaths.
We are all bless-ed
to be in the presence of genuine love.
Nicole—
my sweetest girl,
I know you
as surely as I know the cadence of my heartbeat.
The first time I held you,
I knew
you were meant for me.
Now you’re meant for him, too.
Isaiah—
young man of conviction,
I trust you
as surely as I trust the rhythm of my lungs. ,
I know
your hands were meant for hers.
The journey has begun;
Go forth with Virtue of Truth in
mind,
mouth,
and deed.
Honor one another with Respect;
for weaved within its fabric are the
sinews of great character.
The journey has begun;
Go forth with all of our love and blessings.
Nicole and Isaiah Rodriguez—25 August, 2018
