the Marriage of Baggett
by Michele SchottelkorbLook to the stars, my dear
Our hearts now bonded near
No longer two
With a simple I do
The Marriage of Baggett is here
Eight years of unfaltering love
Christened by words of a dove
Two hearts intertwined
Rings of gold do shine
Gazing softly to Heaven above
January twenty third is the day
Family and friends together do pray
Solidify this pact
This righteous act
Duke and Andi become one today
A couple like this is rare
Just, compassionate and fair
Bonded forever
In good and bad weather
This Life and beyond they will share
