Spring Day
Life begins anew.
A day, like and yet
unlike any other,
with changes in mood,
changes in color,
changes in you
The first day -
Spring.
My Sister's Wedding
Mismatched flowers
Missing bridesmaids
Tears can't fall I say
He won't give her away
Rings the wrong size
Preacher's passed out
A groom with stone feet
He should have cold feet.
Brother, no, I'll call you
by your name, enemy.
You stole something, yet
She never belonged to me.
Two together as one
The wedding party complete
Tears stream on my face
As he gently gives her away
The rings, perfect fits
Preacher's smiling in delight.
A man who loves my sister,
A sister who loves that man.
Brother, I call your name,
Our friendship grows.
A gift freely given,
You belong together.
