Everything was wonderful
They were so much in love.
They planned their wedding
for two thousand and six.
On the day of the wedding
before the thrown confetti
and the ribbons tied to
the honeymoon car
the attendees and the bride
waited and waited
for the groom and his best men
to show
but the groom decided he liked
the company of the best man
more than the love of his future wife
while he and the best man got insensibly drunk
until the groom sobered up and
got to the church after the bride
had ended the relationship with
the unreliable groom
and eventually married
a more punctual man.

Started writing poetry a little over a year ago; most poems I write are fictional but some are not. Spiritual with a permanent spiritual experience. Write poems on many subjects. Always researching for many of my poems and because of my unquenchable thirst for knowledge. After reading and hearing about many near death experiences and death bed visions, I believe death is the ultimate awakening and the relocation of a lifetime. You may believe differently, but you have the right to be wrong -- I'm just messing with you. :-)
