Wedding In Paris

Wedding in Paris

Coming out of the church after the wedding
smiles and cameras clicked.
From the steps, I saw a tramp in the park looking for 
something to eat
he found a half slice of a pizza.
With all the clatter going on, I slipped away
had a whisky in the nearby bar.
I saw the tramp coming out of the park my idea
was to give him money.
I was self-conscious, hated the thought
of looking patronizing, so I had another whisky
Before joining the wedding party.
