A Beautiful Love Poem

I didn’t sleep tonight, but I daydreamed of your brown eyes.
They glistened in the dark, until I watched the sunrise.
At that moment I longed for you to be there, to see the colors that filled the air.
Red, Pink, Violet and Blue; combined they reminded me of you.
The sky was bright but to no compare, to your lovely eyes to which I stare.
Surrounded by majestic mountains, your beauty is endless like flowing fountains.
It was as if I could feel your presence, a scent was a perfume of your essence.
After seeing all these things and believing, I realized I was alone, still only dreaming.

Poem by Keith Perry

 Elegance

One of the worst case scenario for your wedding ceremony...

Working with a florist for your Green Wedding

Confirm exactly what flowers you want and don't want for the wedding; some suggestions: bridal bouquet, bridesmaid bouques, nosegay for the mothers, boutonnieres for the groom, groomsmen, ushers, and father's centerpieces, entrance (for the reception and ceremony), restroom(s), additional wedding party rooms.

• Find out if they ever work with organic and/or sustainable growth flowers/farms.
  
• Will they tell you who their flower suppliers are; can they source locally
  
• Are they willing to pick up and donate leftover flowers to charities for minimum fee
• Can you use your own vessels (vases/bowls)
• Ask them not to use the green gardeners foam, as this can not be recycled
• Let them know you would like to be able to eliminate any unnecessary waste from your arrangements, using floral wire and other devices render the arrangements unable to be composted, so keep things simple.

Eco-chic wedding beauty tips

Avoid Toxic Ingredients: Some perfumes and other fraganced beauty products contain phthalates, which are suspected of causing cancer, birth defects, and irritation, and are present in many personal care products.

Try hydrosols: a hydrosol is the water that remains after using steam or water distillation to create an essential oil, which can be used as facial toners or in other skin-care products. It can also be used as light cologne or body spray.

Find non-toxic products: There are a number of chemical-free beauty product alternatives. Some are in the form of essential oils, many of which have been used to trigger positive psychological and physical reactions. Aromas such as bergamot, grapefruit, jasmine, and lavender, for instance, all smell great and have also been reported to help reduce stress, while cypress and orange are support confidence. Organically grown essential oils are much healthier for the environment, the people who cultivate them, and the people who use them.

Support companies doing good: Choose products from companies like Burt's Bees, Kiss my Face, Jasons products, Avalon Organics. All of these companies have signed the Compact for Safe Cosmetics, a pledge that their products are free of chemicals known or suspected of causing cancer, mutation, or birth defects.

Avoid Benzoyl Peroxide: This ingredient often causes excessive dryness of the skin, and salicylic acid is a notorious skin irritant - both of which are found in non-natural pimple creams.

Have you thought about a garden wedding?

One way to save money on wedding flowers is to get married outdoors in a flower garden or other natural setting, and use the natural beauty of the site in lieu of floral arrangements. Lovely surroundings (ocean view, flowers galore...) create magical wedding location. No other decoration is needed!

Love Poems - Plablo Neruda

Here I Love you

Here I love you.
In the dark pines the wind disentangles itself.
The moon glows like phosphorous on the vagrant waters.
Days, all one kind, go chasing each other.

The snow unfurls in dancing figures.
A silver gull slips down from the west.
Sometimes a sail. High, high stars.

Oh the black cross of a ship.
Alone.
Sometimes I get up early and even my soul is wet.
Far away the sea sounds and resounds.
This is a port.
Here I love you.
Here I love you and the horizon hides you in vain.
I love you still among these cold things.
Sometimes my kisses go on those heavy vessels
that cross the sea towards no arrival.
I see myself forgotten like those old anchors.
The piers sadden when the afternoon moors there.
My life grows tired, hungry to no purpose.
I love what I do not have. You are so far.
My loathing wrestles with the slow twilights.
But night comes and starts to sing to me.

The moon turns its clockwork dream.
The biggest stars look at me with your eyes.
And as I love you, the pines in the wind
want to sing your name with their leaves of wire.

- Pablo Neruda
