Married In Scotland

High above near Edinburgh castle the wind blew my dress and we stood hand in hand waiting for the photographer just married at the registry by absolute strangers even stranger strangers for witnesses gleeful we wept in her office married how lovely a laura ashley dress purchased in london for pennies and you in your stunning grey suit very serious our secret romantic runaway wedding just you and I married the grey walls of the castle the town now held our story there with all the others ages old there we held hands and smiled for the picture our secret still safe still ours still not sharing and so our married life has been this intimate no one else allowed in allowed close allowed to see the secret lovely center of us our marriage.

Beautiful poem, I can relate to this, as had my honeymoon in Edinburgh and other parts of Scotland. A very romantic place.
