Notes About The Poem

The Bride and Groom

In a long blue satin dress she walks in
  given in honour and betrothed to be -
to bear for and new alliance begin
  and wear a crown ring of matrimony.
Thus played a wedding song of divine prayer:
 “Have I told you lately that I love you…”
to march the aisle of veils and true love swear
  and hear fairest of consorts vow “I do!”.
When in worldly union spirits align
  a man and wife joined in soulful promise,
and exuberance of gay hearts and wine
  gently pause in virtue upon sworn kiss.
Till she looks up and screams “what have I done?”
and ponders “do I stay or do I run?”.
