their marriage - present

JAMES (and I think Mandie too) have been learning to enjoy the present. (not the past, which gave birth to the present, nor the future which will be given birth to by the present). This PRESENT is what allows you to really enjoy all other presents.
Our little wedding presents are really reflections or emenations of two bigger presents, each one in this case given by three people.

The first one I'll mention is given by Mandie's mum and dad & herself; it's given to James Norcott, as his bride.

The second one I'll mention is given by James's mum and dad & heimelf; it's given to Amanda Pitt, as her husband.


Mandie Pitt 
and James Norcott
this is it - 
PRESENT you've got.

Unwrap now, 
enjoy the scene - 
friends around, 
not just "have been" ...

When the day 
comes (or the night)
so to pay 
attention bright

to anoth-
-er present there,
come with love 
let each be where

they are, then, 
both give/receive 
(way back when 
Christ lived/believed,

he gave hint 
of blessedness)
and he di'n't 
leave us to guess:

Yet he did 
so though he lived
it unhid-
-den when he gived

his proverb 
which brings some light
(note the verb, 
and you'll be right)

It's more blest 
(more lucky/ favoured)
like a nest 
(heaven flavoured)

to give, than 
receive (goodness)
so our man, 
& woman press

into this "more 
blessed"-ness.
No more Miss, 
new name 'n a dress.

No more sing-
-gle dad & boys.
Much more sing-
-ing, chuckling noise.

Amanda 
Lee Norcott has
given and 
received presence.

And James Llew-
-ellyn Norcott -
What to do -
with all you've got?

Thank God!
