Hi, my 6 year old has asked if he can read a poem during our service. I would love him too but can’t seem to find anything suitable, it need to be quite short. Any ideas? Thank you

Ask him to write one for you, then it’s more personal, or scour the internet together and pick a suitable verse x

There is a really nice winnie the pooh poem which you can google or just type in adorable lovepoems for children to read and it comes up with a variety.

My little girl was 7 at our wedding and read a poem called each other's teddy bear. Everybody loved it

Getting married means you'll have someone's hand to hold
Even when you're feeling sick
Even when your old

It means when you sit down to eat
Someone will be there
So you don't have to tell your day
To an empty chair

It means that when you need some help
Someone will help you out
Someone always near to you
So you won't have to shout

But best of all when it's time to turn out all the lights
You won't have to be alone those long and scary nights

So even though you don't have toys you don't have to care
Once you're married you can be each other's teddy bear

Xx
