Darlene De Beaulieu Poet Free verse

The Roadside Chapel

Jane and Norman are going steady
Now are planning their wedding
They decided to wed 
At a roadside chapel
Off a country road
Their minister will 
Do the ceremony

Jane will have bridesmaids
A flower girl or two
Maids of honor will lead
Then the bride will follow
Walking slow to the groom
She is teary eye with joy

Photos taken outdoors
In front of the chapel 
People gather to watch
Phots are taken 
On a bright sunny day
Small groups groups gather
   to chat
Before leaving the chapel
