Loving neice
I waited ten years for this wonderful day
And just before it arrived my loved ones went away
Life started pushing and pulling giving them no choice
In their hearts they wanted to stay and rejoice
But in life sometimes the path is choosen for you
When it's all said and done to yourself you must be true
No bridesmaid, no female left that I call friend
That's when you answered my prayer, love you did send
You stepped up and filled the sadly open space
As though you were my child you gave loving embrace
You did all you could to help me prepare for life's gift
All the details you handled, worries you did lovingly lift
You took care of me as others would have done
And though I was so nerves you lovingly made it fun
You stood by my side till the last vow was spoken
You gave all you had to give not merely token
You helped make this day so blessed, so complete
You took away the emptiness, sadness you did defeat
I will never forget all you did, truly love you so
Love you gave so freely giving more peace than you know
Thank you so much baby girl I love you so much
