weeks of
preparation lay at the feet
of the two
people who are marrying,
as parents and
friends sit in chairs
not as
comfortable as living rooms
butt tolerable
for the fabulous event;
tears of
tenderness trickle down the
cheeks of all
the admirers who wish
for the
opportunity and the wealth,
but find
themselves lacking both
as these
festivities roll by flawlessly
and embarkation
on some vacation
to some exotic
but expensive place
is just a few
minutes away and these
two joined souls
begin a lifetime of
regretting that
they have no regrets
and the rest of
us return to that which
we left
momentarily to wish well
these two people
and their journey
and a life that
we will never know
or experience
except in Romance
Novels and when
invited to events
like this
because we are family.
