I'm working on our programs and I'd like to put some type of lovey dovey poem or thank you poem or something like that to fill in some dead space on the front. So, I need ideas, anybody that might have something nice and maybe a little unique that would be great! I've heard the "today i marry my friend........." poem over and over again so I want something different.

I'm just going through some of the readings I have that may be interesting for you to consider...
Love is Always, by Melissa Jaggard
Love is an ocean of discovery
A multitude of experiences to treasure
It is the alliance of two lives for always
Not to become one life, but to be two hearts beating in time
Love will hold you near to one another
So that you never feel alone
It will keep you warm within
So that there never be frost around your hearts
Love will grow, will ripen and be ever strong
So that there never be emptiness in your souls
Love is the most precious gift to bestow
A resplendent gift to receive
And MARRIAGE is the promise to cherish your love
To guide its path and never let its glory pass unnoticed
Love is the rapture of this day that will be with you always
Fulfilling you, shining through you ALWAYS
Giving and Receiving
I launched a smile; far out it sailed On life's wide troubled sea.
And many more than I could count Came sailing back to me.
I clasped a hand while whispering, "The clouds will melt away".
I felt my life was very blessed, All through the hours that day.
I sent a thought of happiness Where it was needed sore,
And very soon thereafter, found Joy adding to my store.
I wisely shared my slender hoard, Toil earned coins of gold;
But presently it flowed right back Increased a hundred fold.
I helped another climb a hill, A little thing to do,
And yet it brought a rich reward, A friendship that was new.
I think each morning when I rise, Of how I may achieve,
I know by serving I advance, By giving
Art of Marriage
A Good Marriage must be created.
In the Art of Marriage, the little things are the big things;
It is never being too old to hold hands.
It is remembering to say, "1 love you," at least once each day.
It is never going to sleep angry.
It is having a mutual sense of values and common objectives;
It is forming a circle of love that gathers in the whole family.
It is speaking of appreciation, and demonstrating gratitude in thoughtful ways.
It is having the capacity to forgive and forget.
It is giving each other atmosphere in which each can grow.
It is finding room for the things of the spirit.
It is a common search for the good and the beautiful.
It is not only marrying the right partner. It is being the right partner.
A Tender Message, by Frank Herbert Sweet
If you have a tender message Or a loving word to say
Do not wait until you forget it, But whisper it today;
The tender word unspoken, The letter never sent,
The long-forgotten messages,
The wealth of love unspent--
For these some hearts are breaking, for these some loved ones wait;
So show me that you care for them, before it is too late.
I think this one may be good for a program cover. You may need to change the wording slightly...
Love is the reason
Love is the reason why this day was chosen by you both to begin your
lives together and love is the reason why you both will give with all hearts
for the good of each other.
Love is the reason that together you will become one; one in hope; one in
believing in life; one in sharing the coming years.
