My Son's Wedding Day

September sixteenth, wedding change of gears.
I wait my turn an usher by my side.
Surprise! my arm, the groom now commandeers.
Revised rehearsal plan requests his bride,
a special treat for mom moves me to tears.

September 16, 2022

remembrance of 22 years ago, my son 
escorts me to my seat at his wedding.
