IN HER WEDDING DRESS

 

In her wedding dress

His eyes watched as the sun

Danced on the silver thread.

The pattern was pure, unadulterated

Like the precious contents,

But that night his eyes alighted

On the pattern of another dress

One of shimmering silk

Whose pristine flimsiness

Stood momentarily between

Him and his expectant bride
