Standing,
in the fading sun
beneath the early
stars and the
yellow lamps
that light one by one.
Geese bear witness
As they waddle past on
Tiny orange feet,
As our hearts untwine
Under the
Misty blue sky.
Your supple mouth
Pinches tightly shut
As you lower your eyes
To the ground.
Lifting the lace high up
Over your head you
Go off to be a bride.
