Advise on a Sonnet

Can anyone please read and provide me with any feedback/corrections on my first-attempt at a Sonnet. It is for my upcoming wedding in 4 days.

We tried to meet while playing cards at sea

You spoke to me but then I shied away

You made a friend who you had thought was me

Then finally we had the last few days



The weekend trip across the water blue

A chance for each to know the other more

Come Monday morn it was by then we knew

We hled the keys to both our hearts locked door.



Now you have moved your life to be with mine

A leap of faith so wonderful to take

For fate kept telling us and giving the sign

A great and splendid couple we would make.



Cause who you are I thank the gods above

Because you have restored my faith in love.



I stand before just you and friends of ours

Offering you my deep and truest vow.

No matter what within our lives occurs

To always keep this oath I utter now.



Although our bond is but shortly known,

Our souls both knew a close connection past.

And since, agree this love has more than grown

Into something which will forever last.



This lasting feeling brought us both to here.

Where I stand proud before you readily

Through times of good or bad, through gloom or cheer,

To join my life with yours as family.



So I hereby now pledge and take my cue

To live by words I promise you are true.



To be so true to you and e'er respect

To open wide my eyes, my mind and heart.

Your body and needs always to protect

Through life's long path your side I'll never part.



Be always honest and ever forthright

Through years to come and share my inner soul.

Although it may at times fill me with fright,

I here now freely give my body whole



I'll be your friend and be your lover still

As time may pass and fortune may not smile

Through trials and tragedy to you I will

Be side by side as walking down the aisle.



Fore'r in hearts, in souls, in minds conjoin'd

Till to the grave our souls depart entwined.



Kind regards,

Stephen Graham
