I would like to know a poem to go with a birdseed wreath at a wedding. Letting people know to sprinkle it.?

Birdseed wreath to place in church, poem to inform people to what to do. Sprinkle birdseed instead of confetti.

I would like to know a poem to go with a birdseed wreath at a wedding. Letting people know to sprinkle it.?
Warmer





At night the sun bows early


under the dimly lit trees


The shadows of years past


reflect upon the seeds





Darkening sky, dry air about


fleas and ticks, underground for the night


Trail of yellow and a souring mist


burning holes into the snows new list





Chorus





A path of vomit


and a listless foot


printed on white


with a dragging hoof





I have found my maker


and his place for my feet


away from the hustle


of the empty street





I ramble onward


to my given state of greed


resting warm here


In the self warming glee





A message in a bottle


not meant for you to read


only a statement


Old number five and me
Reply:When name and name have said I do


And sealed it with a kiss


No confetti, rice, or bubbles,


But we'll shower them with this!





My sister using Cheerio's so adding this, but just the first verse alone is nice, too.





Like little golden wedding bands


Of love that never ends


These will not bring any harm


To our feathered friends.





(We grew up in Buffalo were Cheerios are made) LOL
Reply:At this time the bride and groom would like every one to join in the sealing of their vows by part taking in the feeding of this special seed to The Lord's most beautiful creatures.





OR





The bride and groom would like to request on this day. Not to chase the birds away. But treat them to this wreath of seed.Cause all God's flying creatures need to feed
Reply:Put a couple of nieces or young family friends in charge of handing out the packets and explaining that it is lieu of confetti or rice. The little girls will be delighted, and who will mind getting instructions?





If that will not work for you, a simple sign at the wreath that says something like





"Just as the seed will nourish the birds, love will nourish this union. Just as wings spread to carry the birds in flight, may the wishes we cast now carry the couple into the flight of a long and happy life."





It's not a poem exactly, but you could modify it to embody exactly the sentiments you want the seed to symbolize.
