A spark and a flash
That’s all it takes
A moment of heat
A production of flame
•
Wax softens and melts
Guided by your hands
Droplets drip and drop
Puddling in a sea of blue
•
Golden brass awaits
Cooled and prepared
Standing vigilant
In my fingers
•
Then, ice and heat meet
Clashing against one another
Revealing a declaration
Of our love.

***This poem was recently inspired as my fiancé and I prepared our Save the Dates for our upcoming wedding. We decided to seal each card personally with a wax stamp. It was a ton of fun, even if he did momentarily catch his finger on fire, and we love the results. Hopefully our friends and family will as well!
