I Do

.

The maiden's spinneret
            rapidly
         cocooned i

  leaving the spiracle
       for the words

             I do

BTW, I will be in Jersey for a while, but will be checking my email and visiting the Soup from time to time. Wish there were a way we could get together, but I will be busy and I know you have plans with Noah. Please give him a hug for me!
