For Katie and Christian, on the occasion of their wedding April 2008

Old soul and young heart, spirited and free
slightly constrained by constraints that she takes.

Cheekily full of that thing we call life,
longing for love and something that's nice.

Sharing her talents and love of such things;
be it music or resting or travelling the seas.

And silently suffering when no one's around
so she's strong on the outside when you see her so proud;
Longing for that which she's always longed for,
combining her passion of Christ and a man -

A man, a guitar ... a guitar and a song
with eyes just for her, and proposal along.

She trying for goodness; deep caring for friends,
giving and loving like winnie the pooh, triumphing well in such innocent joy

Now 2008 and wedding is near,
from London to Sydney's a long way to care, but
I wish you the best andb I wish I were there

Happy wedding to her and to Christian her man,
peace be to both and family become.
