I made this little piece while thinking about weddings. In the last month I've been asking my ketubah clients to send me photos
of their ketubahs at their weddings to use in my ETSY listings and I
just LOVE wedding pictures. Mine. Yours. Whoevers. I don't care. Love them all. Plus I just saw this stunning video and had a good sob. Feeling the love, I guess. Hope you are too.
The passage in this piece is from a famous love poem by Moshe Dor called Erev Shel Shoshanim* and my friend Jill sang it at our wedding as I walked down the aisle many moons ago.
Let us go out to the garden
Myrrh, Spices, and Frankincense
Are as a carpet under your feet
Night falls slowly
And a wind of roses blows
Let me whisper a song for you slowly
A tune of love
Dawn and the dove coos
Your hair is full of dewdrops
Your lips are as roses unto the morning
I will pick them for myself
I'm also in love with weddings. And, of course, your art. Miss you.
