The Bride

The bride was really lovely

And her face was all a’glow.

Her beaded dress was fitted

So her pregnancy did show.

 

And yet she danced and partied

With her unborn baby boy.

As she laughed and kicked her heels up,

We were caught up in her joy.

 

Years ago, it might have mattered

And the truth tucked ‘neath the dress

Or the wedding date moved backward

So perhaps no one would guess.

 

Yet the bride and groom were thrilled

As were their friends and all their kin

There to celebrate their marriage

And their waiting son within.
