At Last


When wedding bells meet stained glass mirrors At a Cathedral on 76th and Lex We'll have known the time has come Heart beats pounding against Vera Wang lace and Roberto Cavalli suits In the mist of excitement from future brother-in-laws and close friends since the 5th grade It's all or nothing Bouquets of white lily Flower girls complaining of how their dresses make them itchy The high school rival jealous with envy "It should've been me" A glass of champagne to calm the nerves of an anxious wife Or cover the shame of a guilty groom Last night was the Last time... For big booty strippers and crumbled up dollar bills Here's a tip to the bride And a toast to the groom Bless the ones that jump this broom And good luck staying together after visiting the clinic soon

jwiener
This was a great poem, because you did not tell it from only one perspective, but instead you interpreted what the feelings of each individual would be in this given situation, which is an excellent writing skill to have.
