Awful Wedding
I went Savanna in the wedding ceremony
Of the children of my friends who invited me.
It was April 2021, spring has just opened the screen
After suffocating in the prolonged quarantine !
All the pending proposals for bonding romantic love
To a stronger legal knot:
Golden chain, flowery bed, dreamy land!
Savanna church is traditionally famous for
Arranging 'Community wedding' with prior
Appointment .My grand daughter of five years
Accompanied me to be bride's 'flower girl' .
She experienced to get 'gifts' as flower girl.
I went straight to the Church from the airport
And was greeted by my friends and David the groom,
With wedding suit-boot -bow-tie and a gift-box
Containing a gaudy golden dress with hairband
For Lily, my grand-daughter who conveyed
"Thanks' but asked impatiently 'where is the bride'?
Introducing Mike,David replied,'here is my bride '
But both of us share you as flower girl, sweetie!"
Lily gazed at well dressed Mike with suspicion--
"You are merely friend , how can bride be any man!"
With the Church bell the priest announced the ceremony
Nine pairs of couple entered the church holding hand in hand
As per to their ticket number . Cheerful invitees in chat
Along with romantic music erupting the background .
When turn for David and Mike came, Lily fell asleep
Too deeply to wake up ; perhaps in utter despair !
