Hit me like a...

Hit me like a brick
Like one out of our garden
That's been laid newly
The one which makes us smile

Hit me like the rays
Up high in that blue surrounding
That encasement of beauty
That brought me to you

Hit me like a dizzy spell
Like the one which gets me now and then
When I'm sat with you
Or walking next to you

I am so lucky
That's what hit me
That's what sank on in deep below the skin
That's what made me halt full stop
In the middle of the street
Holding up strangers hurrying past me
That's what happened

Like a lightning bolt
No warning
The weather man had got it wrong
Like they do
Always do, have you noticed how much so?

Not that the weather would have stopped us
It was glorious on our day though
You couldnt of asked for more
Not even more sun
Even during the vows
When it was trickling down from the beautiful roof of our existence
I welcomed it with a smile
We were holding hands
It calmed us down
It relaxed us
The rain can do that sometimes
But only if it's slight
None of this rain fall shite

I digress
What hit me more so was this
I was walking passed the shops
No music, just me, my heart and my mind working overtime
On route for a new Starbucks concoction
Nothing major
I could feel the wedding band around my finger
I felt it and I could feel two
Two rings
A commitment that held on to me every day
In every way
Not just the heart strings or my racing pulse but my finger
My mind, all entwined
Tightly wrapped up
Secure and wanted
And needed and most of all loved
Loved enough to make a difference
Enough to commit ourselves forever
As one
Together we conquered each other
We both won
Life with our soul twin
Our lover
Our wife
