the bride's mother

you should have been
there last year,
at the wedding.
the bride rode a horse into
the castle.
a white horse.
it was an open bar,
sit down dinner for two
hundred
and thirty five.
they wrote their own vows.
a live band performed.
jugglers and clowns
appeared,
magicians did tricks.
there were fireworks in the sky.
politicians gave speeches.
celebrities showed
up in fancy cars.
it was a marvelous wedding.
you should have been
there. but not to worry,
if we're still in touch
you can come to the next one,
next year,
trust me, it will
be even better.
