Quotes and Poems

Hello all! I was just wondering what quotes and verses you are all using on invites, programs, etc?

Here are some of mine:

Love Autumnal by Oliver Jenkins

My love will come in autumn-time
When leaves go spinning to the ground
And wistful stars in heaven chime
With the leaves’ sound

Then, we shall walk through dusty lanes
And pause beneath low-hanging boughs,
And there, while soft-hued beauty reigns
We’ll make our vows.

Let others seek in spring for sighs
When love flames forth from every seed;
But love that blooms when nature dies
Is love indeed!

And also this song lyric from 'If I Should Fall Behind' by Bruce Springsteen:


Everyone dreams of love, lasting and true
But you and I know what this world can do
So let’s make our steps clear, that the other may see
And I’ll wait for you and if I should fall behind, wait for me.

Here is the link to a thread I started on 07 with a lot of diffrent readings

07 Readings

I want to use this for my invitations:
As autumn leaves turn their brilliant hues,
two lovebirds will join and say, “I do.”


I used this for my STD cards:
This autumn we will join as one
with memories of the summer’s sun,
visions of the winter’s chill,
shared hopes and dreams to now fulfill.


I wanted to use this in the invitations, but FH didn't like it because it was too long:
Springtime love is young and fine,
while ripe is the love of Summertime.
Winter love is strong and cool,
but Autumn love is best of all
for it’s ripe and fine, strong and full.


I'm gettimg married in mid-November when leaves are already colorful, so I couldn't use this, but I like it:
As the trees burst into color
and the autumnal season arrives
they pledge their faith, their love, their lives

I love the one you used for your STD's

On our programs:


Love rules the court,
the camp, the grove,
and men below and the saints above,
for love is Heaven,
and Heaven is love.
-Sir Walter Scott
