Love is the Force

May fourth and Star Wars will never divorce;
it is a theme in our culture to stay.
Good friends got married since love is the force.

Month, date and movie provide a pun source;
R2-D2 and the like make our day.
May fourth and Star Wars will never divorce.

I was the best man to keep him on course;
scarce was the chance he would scamper away.
Good friends got married since love is the force.

Codes travel space spanning far beyond Morse;
all we need do is transfix on the ray.
May fourth and Star Wars will never divorce.

The bachelor party made most of us hoarse;
she holds on loosely so he will not stray.
Good friends got married since love is the force.

Weddings and movies are there to endorse,
much like the lengthening daylight in May.
May fourth and Star Wars will never divorce;
good friends got married since love is the force.
