Love making
Wedding bells chime, the ceremony is over
Rice rises as we make haste down the aisle
been waiting for this day more than a little while
the day that I am able to fully embrace my lover
bad company asked me what's the point in waiting?
while they were having sex, our love was in themaking
an intercourse of the mind and soul as we Christian mingled
minus the worldwide web but we still connected at hot spots
on date nights that ended when the sun came up in all its glory.
Sure, people 'bangdey mouth can't done' as we say
but we knew ourselves and the God to whom we pray
He is our witness, and we are his faithful followers
that's why I vowed to cherish and protect you, my flower
Wedding bells chime, the ceremony is over,
but the road stretches before us beautifully undulating
and as we traverse the ups, downs, and turns of this path
we will delight in the pleasure of erotic romance but remember
that it is only a small portion of the love that we are constantly making

Thanks Colin. Your comment made me laugh. It also inspired me to try to write a poem in my local dialect. I live in a small Caribbean island where non-standard English is the norm but I try not to speak it that often. Unfortunately, I think that the local dialect is the reason why I am not very good in grammar.
