Thank you so much! That poem was a revelation to me, too. The first time I heard it was at my son's wedding. I was standing behind him under the wedding huppa (sp.?) used in Jewish weddings, and listening to him say his vows to his beautiful bride. It made me cry. It's so profound and heartfelt. Gaiman wrote it to say at a friend's wedding. Did you follow the link and read the whole poem? That's worth doing, if you really liked it. Thanks again for your kind comment.
