The
Wedding
By Darby Sinel
Looking towards the back of
the sanctuary
Her eager presence is felt by all
The lace train flows behind her like the tears in her father’s eyes
A long aisle leads her to this next stage in her life
Her eager presence is felt by all
A collective breath hitches, captivated
A long aisle leads her to this next stage in her life
Well-dressed, the fidgeting groom awaits
A collective breath hitches, captivated
Still, bridesmaids look on like the Queen’s Guards
Well-dressed, the fidgeting groom awaits
Side by side, the rabbi addresses the anxious couple
Still, bridesmaids look on like the Queen’s Guards
Decorated, the chuppa frames the bride and groom
Side by side the rabbi addresses the anxious couple
Praising God for ensuring the sanctity of family
Decorated, the chuppa frames the bride and groom
Onlooking, parents beam in conjunction, full of joy
Praising God for ensuring the sanctity of family
The sound of the glass breaking is lost in the families’ applause
Onlooking, parents beam in conjunction, full of joy
Another stage of life found through God’s guidance, grace
The sound of the glass breaking is lost in the families’ applause
Each moment directing to the path in God’s vision
Another stage of life found through God’s guidance, grace
The newlyweds exit, ecstatic, hand-in-hand
Each moment directing to the path in God’s vision
Looking towards the back of the sanctuary.
