Humorous Poem for a Wedding

Many couples feel a bit nervous about having a reading or two at their wedding, thinking perhaps they don’t want some deep, philosophical or spiritual text read at their wedding ceremony- it’s a fair point. However, there are many types of texts & poems that can add warm humour to a wedding ceremony, like this from Daniel Thompson:

“Wherever you go
Whatever we do
Whenever there’s me
I hope that there’s you.

Now, money is funny, it can make people odd.
You forget to be happy, you’ll live for the job
And fashion, is a passion, beset with a flaw
You can dress to excess, but you’ll always need more.

And a muscled toned body, may sound like a dream
But no body is better, than chocolate ice cream.
What I’m trying to say, is happiness grows
Not through your wages, or body or clothes

But in laughter & love, and in sharing your life.
In the arms of another as husband & wife.
So when you find someone who weird just like you
Who laughs when you’re stupid & who makes you laugh too.

When you sit on a sofa, not hiding your flaws.
As imperfectly perfect, as the hand that holds yours.
When the fortune of kings, or purse of a beggar
Won’t change how it feels, just being together.

When a cuddle & cuppa is all that you need...
Well then...
You’ve found something quite special indeed.

Wherever we go
Whatever we do
Whenever there’s me
I hope that there’s you.
