We recently attended a beach wedding and it came
with a wonderful view
As the happy couple getting married smiled and
said I do.
It’s been 25 years, yes a lifetime…one we often
like to review
Since in a little church in Dunedin, Deborah and
I said I do.
Brenda and Carol are two close friends and this
one fact is true
They’ve been together as long as Deborah and I,
but have never said I do.
Oh they would have married but our country has
said they’re not allowed to
So they’ve waited and waited and still wait for
the day they can say I do.
And they are not alone for there are many other
couples in our country who
Are waiting for the day to be treated like
Deborah and me, and get a chance to say I do.
Oh there is a change in the wind as 12 states and
the District of Columbia too
Allow Brenda and Carol to stand together and
utter the words I do.
It begs the question for the rest of the
country, Why would you, or you or you
Want to take away a couples constitutional right
just to say I do.
Many refer to the bible where Adam and Eve once
rendezvoused
As a reason Adam and Adam or Eve and Eve must
never say I do.
But besides this archaic reason banning same sex
couples from saying I do
The Bible also bans eating a ham sandwich,
gossiping and tattoos.
The Bible states a man or a woman who divorce
can never again say I do
Women are not allowed to talk in church, and rounded
haircuts are taboo.
It seems to me the Bible makes it easy; when the
day is through
Allowing bigots to take no responsibility in
banning same sex I do’s
I believe they should be looking at our
constitution which demands equal rights for who?
For all people, yes all the people who wish to
say I do.
To me there really should be no question, it’s none
of my business who
Wants to enter into matrimony by saying the
words I do.
It won’t end our country as we know it…and it’s
so very long overdue
It’s time for same sex couples to legally say I
do.
I long for the day Brenda and Carol, and all the
others who may want to
Can walk down the aisle in the state of their
choice and utter the words I do.
If they want to have a beach wedding, I’ll sit
back and enjoy the view.
As two of my close friends look into each
other’s eyes, smile and say I do.
Who wants to follow the constitution? Who wants
the truth to finally pursue?
Who wants my friends and their friends to marry?
Who wants this?…I know I do?
