Poetry Cavalcade 2009: Poem 5


[Click on the photo to enlarge it]

Rain on a Wedding Day

I was in the crowd
Outside of the church
Watching an ambulance
Drive off with the groom.

The women looked angry
Some men, amused
But out by the door
Was one man, alone
Lost in thought or confusion
Or envy, perhaps?

No. Sadness.
A woman approaches
She knows his face
Wraps him up in her arms
And the rain is still falling.

It is kind of cool you saw all this and took a photo of the poor guy getting hauled off. Ha!

Isn't that ambulance the only car on Mackinac or something?
