The Wedding
















Bride and groom embrace,
then kiss at their wedding.

The guests watch in anticipation
they can tell from their
looks and body posture

if this marriage will last.
It shouldn’t be so easy
but even the novice gets it right

whether it is a day, a year, a life
witnesses who gather on these occasions know
and are not surprised if the marriage vows
are soon forgotten and the once happy couple

becomes a sad tale of conflict and strife

or builds a bond, made in heaven,
with a loving husband
and a content wife.
