Love Is Blooming

She looked in the mirror, and couldn't believe her eyes, her mother's gown, was just her size. Today a bride, tomorrow a wife, yesterday's news, she carries new life. Only nineteen, they say their vows, determined to make it, a happy marriage somehow. Happily ever after, no one can say, but love is blooming, on her wedding day.
