(Here's
a good example of just what can be achieved. Susan
was getting married and wanted something special for her new husband, Andrew. Susan has kindly
given her permission for her poem and story to
be published.)

"My Dearest Allen,
I just wanted to write and let you know that the
wedding was beautiful as was your poem. I was
told there wasn't a dry eye in the room, everyone
found the poem very moving, Andrew especially."

What
is your name: |
| Susan Bourne |
| |
Who
do you want the poem written for: |
| My husband to be, Andrew. We
are getting married on 12th June |
| |
Why
do you want the poem written: |
I want
him to know how much I love him |
| |
What
are the key messages you would like to send: |
I want
him to know that since we found each other
my life has turned around, before I started
seeing Andy I had had a 10 year relationship
previously which was very abusive and included
a number of affairs on my partner side.
I eventually got out this relationship and
spent some time by myself before meeting
Andy. Although I would not wish for the
past to be directly referred to I would
like somehow to say how my life is different
now and how much he means to me as I appreciate
him more for having been through a bad time.
I want him to know that I love him with
all my heart and trust him with my life,
I know he would never do anything to hurt
me or let me down in any way. |
| |
Do
you have any funny, sad, happy, embarrassing
or otherwise memorable moments that you
would like to share: |
I knew
Andy some 15 years ago through his brother
Mark, but always have remembered him as
Marks' little brother, we have occasionally
bumped into one another over the years but
were both with someone at the time. One
night I went out with my friends into town
and after a few too many left early by myself.
I bumped into Andy that night he was working
( he's a police officer ), we chatted and
exchanged numbers, I jokingly said did he
not mind that I was older than him to which
he replied how old was I, I said I was 27
and he laughed and said he was 28 the following
week! I'd always remembered him as Marks'
little brother as I'd never looked at him
in that light before. We text each other
and arranged to go out on a date. Andy took
me to the pictures on our first date to
see Red Dragon, I watched most of the film
cuddled up to him as I don't really like
scary films, maybe that was his plan! From
that night on we were inseparably, I knew
I'd found my soul mate. Within weeks Andy
had moved in with me and my son Luca and
in the February Andy asked me to marry him,
I felt like the happiest person alive and
said yes of course. In March we went on
our first holiday together with some friends
and my son Luca, we had a great time, Andy
got burnt on his back and Luca and I had
little competitions to see who could get
the biggest piece of skin of his back, yuk!!!
We started to renovate our new house we
had bought aiming to move in as quick as
possible. Whilst we were doing the house
up Andy nailed down a floor board and burst
the water pipe below it, was a funny moment
you had to be there. We have just spent
our first Christmas in our new home and
it was the best. Andrew is very warm and
loving, caring and considerate. I know that
he ill never hurt me. He has taken me knowing
my past troubles and without a thought my
son as well. Luca and I love him to bits.
We have little names for each other my name
for Andy is 'Babyone' his for me is to rude
to print! We tell each other we love each
other sometimes by saying ' all the world'
or 'to the moon and back again'. I can't
imagine what my life would have been like
had our paths not crossed the last time
we met. It must have been fate. He makes
me so very happy and I know that he holds
my heart in his hand, I know he will be
gentle with it. We talk about having children,
we say little wressell's. I cannot wait
to have his children and to see him as a
father, i know he will be wonderful. At
times Andy has little insecurities as he
thinks sometimes that I'm too beautiful
to be with him and could do so much better.
I answer to him we are good enough for each
other. He is the best and I want him to
know that I wouldn't swap him for anyone
else in the whole wide world. Andy has been
hurt before too and i want him to know I
will never take his love for granted and
will never hurt him. Andy is very witty
at times and comes out with some great one
liners, he has a great sense of humour.

Do
you have any other comments or thoughts: |
| I just really want to tell
him how much I love him, how special he is
to me and my son. To thank him for asking
me to be his wife, which I cannot wait to
be. That I am proud of him and all he has
done.( he looks very sexy in his uniform too
) and that every day for the rest of my life
I will love him and cherish what we have. |

It doesn’t seem so long ago,
when I was there, sitting on my own,
contemplating a troubled and torrid past,
a past where I'd spent most of it feeling
all alone. |
But then you walked into
my life,
and it was like a firework had lit up my night
sky,
and I’m going to try and explain that
line,
or at least I’m going to give it my
very best try. |
You see, you don’t know how really
bad ‘bad’ is,
that is until you’ve had your share
of bad and troubled times,
you then know the real meaning of heartache,
you know the agony in all those desperate
rhymes. |
I appreciate you so
much more because of that knowledge,
because I know just how cruel life can be,
and I just wanted you to know that you’re
special,
you simply mean the very world to me. |
The night we met I'd had one too many,but
now I'm glad I did,
(and I’d always thought of you as Mark’s
little brother),
I knew my destiny had been rearranged,
I’d met my soul-mate (and there’ll
never be another). |
Our first date was a
free ticket picture show,
Red Dragon had me cuddling you and hiding
my eyes,
I guess that was your fiendishly clever plan,
as within weeks you’d moved in with
me and Luca (no surprise). |
When you asked me to marry you,
I felt like the happiest woman on earth,
because I know the value of true and real
love,
and just how much that love is truly worth. |
Our first holiday together
was wonderful,
apart from your case of sunburn attack,
but I must admit Luca and I enjoyed the competition,
who could get the biggest piece of skin off
your back. |
And the renovations on our house sort of
went OK,
that is apart from the water pipe you burst,
it gave us all a big laugh that day,
(and also quenched a few termite’s thirst). |
We’ve just spent
our first Christmas in our new home,
and I’ve got to say it was simply the
best,
and Andrew, husband, I love you,
(you passed the audition, you came top in
the test). |
You’re so very warm, loving, caring
and considerate,
and I am truly smitten by your worldly charms,
I know I’ll never be lost and lonely
again,
I feel totally safe whenever I’m in
your arms. |
Luca and I love you
to bits!
You’re much more than a friend to my
son,
and although your name for me is too rude
to print,
I love you my “Babyone”. |
All the world and to the moon and back
again,
that’s just how wonderful you really
are,
and if my love for you were a distance,
then it would be further than the furthest
star. |
If I tried to imagine
my life without you,
I would see one of darkness, of no light at
all,
it must have been fate and I accept it gladly,
I’m looking forward to our Wressels,
large and small. |
I know sometimes you have a little insecurity,
but I reckon we’re just a perfect match,
and of all the fishes in this world,
let me tell you, I’ve got the pick of
the catch. |
I will never take your
love for granted,
and your one liners I could never possibly
out do,
so just know that I wouldn’t swap you
for the world,
so Babyone, it must mean that this love is
really true! |
So, I just wanted to say I love you,
I guess that’s really what these words
are for,
Andrew, I love you very much,
and I promise you that love today, always
and forever more. |

"My Dearest Allen,
I just wanted to write and let you know that the
wedding was beautiful as was your poem. I was
told there wasn't a dry eye in the room, everyone
found the poem very moving, Andrew especially.
I have attached a photo of us both on our wedding
day so that you can put a face to our names. The
poem is something that we will both treasure for
the rest of our lives, thank you so so much. I
know I have said it before but you are a truly
talented guy and I am so glad that I found you.
I wish you and you loved ones happiness for the
future and also good health. I will be in touch
shortly as I would love you to write a poem for
my brother and his wife, (withheld) and I would
love you to write something to celebrate this.
If I may I will write to you nearer the time to
tell you more about it,
Once again Allen THANK YOU, THANK YOU THANK YOU,
you made our day so much more special.
With Love and Affection
Susan Bourne ( now Wressell !!!! ) |
