The Spires
As I arrived in the limousine
Gazing out the window at the grandeur.
The church, made of stone, showing strength
Its spires, standing tall against the sky,
Like beacons for lost souls.
The driver opened my door, and as I
stepped out into the cool, crisp air
I realized that once I walk into that place
Where strength and love can be found
Between the spires,
My life shall be forever changed.
The ceremony over, the people all gather outside,
We walk together, out the doors to cheers and greetings.
Before I am whisked away, I turn to once again
Look at where all our lives changed that day
When we walked in, between the spires.
