Windswept

once upon a time a wedding day handkerchief with lovely white lace an old garter belt borrowed and fastened on thigh a groom with blue eyes a nosegay bouquet tucked in baby’s breath fastened with ribbon the bride’s train so long ring bearer, flower girls ride for a couple hours then into the wind with the groomsman by her side — the unbridled bride 12/28/2018
