All the people there
were silent.
Two people, curiously
ornamented
approached a black-dressed man.
They read a book,
they put on two rings
and everybody
yelled in happiness and joy
after they kissed.
The Raven didn't understand—
yet, it was moved.
He didn't want to break
the joy of the event
with a caw,
so instead,
the Raven flew.

Second poem in the series "The Raven flew", with a raven (the Raven) witnessing some social event each week, and always ending with "the Raven flew".
