Am I under your spell or was it just meant to be
Because now we’ve agreed to be married at sea
We’ll be married by an old bearded captain
With one wooden leg
And live our lives together blissfully wed
We’ll dance the first dance
To the sound of old sea shanty verse
And live life together for better or worse

We’ll live as gypsies with a boat for a home
And enjoy nature’s beauty wherever we roam
We’ll spend tender moments in each other’s arms
I’ll work the waltzers and you can read palms.

I really like this, you could have split the third line and the fifth line, We'll be married by an old bearded captain with one wooden leg We'll dance the first dance to the sound of old sea shanty verse and live together for better or worse. I think it's brilliant, love it, I could be wrong about the above, it just reads better to me, that's all. Brilliant poem.

Thanks for the advice, I find it most helpful as I'm pretty much flying blind when it comes to format or formula. The poem comes from a silly conversation I had with my girlfriend the other night and I wasn't sure if it would mean anything to anybody else.Thank you for your kind words.
