Short Wedding Toasts to the Bride and Groom

Nature of Love

All beings by nature are lovers, as ice by nature is water.

The love shared by one couple is powerful enough to unite heaven and earth.

May God grant you two many years to live, for earth has few angels.

Peace and Plenty

May peace and plenty be the first

To lift the latch to your door,

May happiness be guided to your home.

Walk in Love

Walk in love,

sit in love,

live in love.

To be in love is to truly live.

Your Eye

The eye with which you see your wife is the same eye with which your wife sees You.

Love Each Fragment

If you seek love in each separate fragment of your relationship, you will be overwhelmed by the totality.

Who Are You ?

Find out who you are as a couple. Then all else will be known.

The Desire of God

In the desire of God to know his own beauty, you exist.

Worldly Power

Worldly possessions and power means little.

The unsayable, jeweled private life you develop as a couple,

means much.

Perfect Love

When a relationship is perfectly balanced,

perfect love can be realized.

Psalm 1 (8th century BC)

Blessed are they who delight in the way things are,

and keep their hearts open day and night.

Love Gives Life

Love gives life to all the world.

Love gives strength and wisdom.

May you two walk in beauty, and may your eyes behold many a red and purple sunset.

May your ears hear the true voice of your partner.

My you be wise so that you may understand what is truly important in life.

My you remain calm and strong in the face of all that comes towards you.

My you learn the lessons hidden in every leaf and rock.

My you seek pure thoughts and act with the intention of helping others.

My you find compassion without allowing empathy to overwhelm you.

My you seek strength, not to be greater than others, but to fight for the week.

My you two always greet each other with clean hands and straight eyes.

So when life fades, as the fading sunset, your spirits may continue without shame.

May You Be Poor!

May you be poor in misfortune,

Rich in blessings,

Slow to make enemies,

And quick to make friends.

But rich or poor, quick or slow,

May you two know nothing but happiness

From this day forward.

Let’s all toast this beautiful couple!

A Long Life Together

A toast to your coffin.

May it be made of 100 year old oak.

  • Overcoming Obstacles In Edgar A. Guest's Poem See It Through

    681 Words  | 2 Pages

    In many parts of the poem, Guest uses metaphors to show the strength that one should always keep while facing their troubles. He tells his readers to "Lift your chin and square your shoulders, plant your feet and take a brace" to prepare for whatever could be ahead (lines 2-3). Even through the metaphor "Black may be the clouds above you" which gives a clear perception of difficult and hopeless moments that might be surrounding an individual, it is still better than running since it "will not save you" (lines 8-11). It is throughout the poem that Guest has used many metaphors to remind his readers about the facing the problems that will lie ahead. It is even pointed at points, such as, "You may fail, but fall fighting" to remind the reader that not all problems can be confronted. However, the author suggests that with a person's body language, like standing tall, could become a resolve. With these metaphorical commands, it gives the reader the feeling of a solider or fighter that is preparing to face an enemy. This is also further emphasized from his use of repetition. Guest repeats the figurative phrase, "See it through" to show the reader to overcome the toughest or most hopeless of problems. It is also from this statement that he suggests to go keep going no matter what since in the end it is possible that one can succeed. Becoming the clearest and most encouraging phrase and title of the poem, Guest has made the distinction of his theme to overcome everything that one can in order to achieve the best for one's
