If you’re keen to find a ceremony reading that is more on the quirky side, then this original poem, Mila’s Song might just be right up your alley. Mila’s Song was written by Kenneth D. Heatley, and we may not know who Mila is, but judging by the author’s words, she’s clearly the love of his life. Although it’s a modern piece, it has a fantasy or Medieval feel to it, evoking knights in shining armour, dragons and ferocious beasts. If you like the idea of your partner offering to slay a dragon for you, then this is the wedding ceremony reading for you.
Mila’s Song by Kenneth D. Heatley
Whenever you’re in danger
Or feeling down and blue,
I’ll be there to hold your hand.
Yes, I’ll be there with you.
I would keep you safe and sound,
My arms around your waist.
You would feel my heart beat fast
As I gently touch your face.
If we were in a fairy tale,
You’d be my damsel in distress.
I would be wearing shining armor,
And you, a long white dress.
I would battle fierce dragons
And other monsters, too.
All these things and much, much more
I would do for you.
I would take you on my steed
Through forests dark and wild,
With ferocious beasts and demons, too.
I’ll be there by your side.
My sword will be ready
To keep you safe from harm.
I’ll fight the world just for you.
I’ll be your lucky charm.
I’ll build a castle strong and high
To keep the wolves at bay.
For all our lives to live there,
Where I will love you more each day.
Where we would live like Queen and King,
And songs of love they’d sing,
All dedicated to the one I love,
And this song for you I bring.
