Halfway around the world,
dawnis pulling
your eyelids
apart
Halfway around the world,
light
is throwing
its gemstones
around
Halfway around the world,
warmth
is nudging
the curtain aside
Halfway around the world,
your lips
softly lift
speaking her name
Halfway around the world,
you bounce
out of bed
with the sun
in your stride
As you race
full pace
toward Siddhi
this night—
Where darkness
will gather
her head
toward yours
and everything
after
is a wide
open book
Halfway around the world,
happiness
hums
in despair's old haunt
Like a touch
from a friend
sent
on a star
Aniket and Siddhi, married this day

Thank you so much for this. A perfect thing to read on the morning of your wedding day.
Siddhi loved it too. :)
So very excited to fill in the pages of our open book. Wonder where we'll go from here. :)
A million different places, all with her by your side.
Going to sleep now, but when I wake up, it'll almost be time. :)
Sending love and good wishes and most of all--joy.
This is your day, my friend.
It is good Sarah that you can feel pleasure for your friends half a world away. It is also good that you have the words to glorify their union.
I agree, Mark. Thanks for reading them, as always.
