Poetry: Weddings

by Jen Hudson

Created on: June 25, 2008

"one love"

the little white dress
veil to cover my eyes
that's nothing but lies
a show for the world
the religious circus
all i needed was you,
me,
on the white sandy beaches,
flip-flops,
and the sea.
the minister spoke of soulmates,
and marley tunes filled the night.
and do i regret the absence of the garter toss
or 200 people i hardly know shaking my hand
and drinking cheap wine?
no.
babe,
for the rest of my life,
i will remember that day,
in negril,
where i gave my heart to my
one love.
