Katie and Cory ✨ with elephants that appeared so often, they started to feel like part of the guest list.
While exchanging vows to the sound of the flowing Olifants River at their feet, this poem by came to mind 🤍
They say love starts with a spark,
and that might be true,
but if I were to wish you a love,
I wouldn’t wish fire for you.
You see, fire is powerful,
but it burns bright, then it’s gone.
It’s beautiful and warm,
but it doesn’t last long.
So instead of wishing you
a love that burns,
I wish you love like a river
that twists and turns.
It changes and flows,
it is powerful and free,
and it consistently finds its way
back to the sea.
So like the water, I hope your love
is ever-growing, ever-changing.
I hope your love is powerful and free,
and may you always find each other
like the river finds the sea.
