Lines celebrating Julie and Nigel's renewal of wedding vows

Ten years! - Each with each other blessed;
Ten years of happiness possessed;
Ten years on and Nigel truly,
Madly, deeply still loves Julie;
And she her Nigel will adore,
With equal love for evermore.

This short poem was 5 verses in total and was read out by a good friend of Nigel and Julie.

Lines in memory of Emma's "Little Nana"

I always thought it marvellous
With Nana looking after us.
On Christmas Eve she'd always stay
And so be there for Christmas Day.
She was, since I was very small,
The nicest present of them all.

She'd talk to me for hours on end,
Not as a grandchild, but a friend;
I sit admiring and in awe
Listening to stories of the war;
And I was sure that we had won
Because she'd built a Wellington.


This poem was 8 verses in total and was read out at the funeral and was received very well.

Extract from Claire and Peter's Wedding Poem

Though Claire felt strongly at the time,
There came another day
When helpless in the face of love
That oath did melt away.

And Peter loved the single life
He liked to live that way…
He liked the pubs
He liked the clubs
And often he was heard to say
“A bachelor I’ll stay!”

“The best laid plans of mice and men”
- This proverb’s often heard.
So just when Pete thought he was safe
Love made him eat his words.

So both are fools – thank God they are –
Cause Love has found a way;
And let this date – April the First –
Be April Lover’s Day

This longer poem was 17 verses in total and told a great story.
