My niece is getting married and asked me to read something at her wedding.  She has a 6 year old daughter from a previous relationship and I wanted a reading that incorporates her daughter into it.  Any suggestions?

 



 
I looked at a number of readings and poems and didn't find anything that seemed quite right.  The poem that appears below, which I found on www.weddinggazette.com, seemed to be the closest.  I suggest that you change the beginning of the last paragraph from "children" to your great-niece's name.  You may want to do some other personalizing or add to the poem as well.

The vows you have just taken, pledging love
Nicholas Gordon
The vows you have just taken, pledging love,
Mean far more than words can ever mean.
May their gentle spirit in you move. 

May your years fulfill the beauty of
The feelings whose expression we've just seen,
The vows that you have taken, pledging love. 

And may you always put these vows above
The things that make life smaller and more mean.
May their gentle spirit in you move. 

May your children know the power of
These words to shape a world that's sane and clean,
These vows that you have taken, pledging love.
