FEBRUARY WEDDING

Wind-gusted

We wandered

In frozen gardens

Winter trees

Ice-crystalled

And silvered

Dazzled beneath

The chill moon’s

Eerie heaven

Smiling faces

Candlelit and firelit

Eyes beaming

With happiness

But it came time

To say farewell

We went off

Into the wind-gusted

Twilight newly-wed

And fragile

As blown glass
