Candle gift with poem for baby shower/bridal shower?

Question

I recently went to bridal shower and the bride to be was given a gift of a huge basket with all these candles in different colors and a poem - the poem explained when and which to light each candle. I've asked the bride and she doesn't want to give up the secret. I heard there is one for a baby shower -- does anyone know either/both?

Answer 1

A Basket of Candles

For [insert Bride's name]

A basket of candles that come in a pair

In all different colors, for you two to share

The white ones burn first

They are wrapped in white lace

To celebrate your first married night

In your new chosen place.

The green pair is taller, and also much thinner

Burn with the first company, you have over for dinner.

The dark blue candles are for after your first fight

Use them to burn while making up all night.

Pink candles set the mood and pave the way

For your first married Valentine’s Day.

Now, when your first year of marriage is through

The cream anniversary pair, will light for you two.

Red candles aflame, both your futures are bright

Celebrate promotions you’ve worked toward with all of your might.

By this time we hope, maybe, just maybe

You can light the purple ones, on the birth of your baby.

And just when you thought you’d put these away

Take the light blue ones out-for your fifth anniversary day.

Now just one more pair left - for the big 2 5

The anniversary pair that will keep your love alive.

Congratulations [insert Bride and Groom's names]

On the start of your forever

May the two of you always be happy together

And burn these candles

Just the way we said

But please don’t forget-blow them out before bed!

If I can find the baby shower one I will post it...

Hope this helps :0)
