| The Runaway Bride In my darkest suit I beheld a snowy gown; threatening look Her laughter beneath her black Her appearance had blew all suspicious In-law's arm about her arm Yet on the altar I waited for her As my beauteous princess floated toward Her foot rang into my ears great echoes Where stillness had found its rest. Her journey to the altar Seemed as hundred miles "...I do." A stillborn day! Bride, away with my day? Wha...wha...what an inglorious chapter! And a sweet bitterness. |
