A secret wedding
They carried on in secret,
pretending not to care,
then organised the wedding,
not one of the family were there,
mum cried in the kitchen,
the news was hard to bear,
dad had lost his temper,
his choice words hung in the air,
the household was in crisis,
with lots of opinions to share,
the summit in the sitting room,
agreed it wasn't fair,
"nothing good will come of this",
said granddad from his chair,
while grandma simply said it was,
"a hole in the wall affair".
