(This was created for an exercise in writing class. It was fun to write and reminds me of our wonderful vacation together. I wanted to put it somewhere it wouldn’t get lost.)
Honeymoon Before the Wedding
San Antonio welcomes us with pelting rain,
Showers us with luxury. Smooth sheets, fat, fluffy robes
and Jose Cuervo. Fiesta!
Unmarried honeymooners climb Enchanted Rock,
Cross chasms uncertainly.
Rest on rustic wooden benches.
They’ve still got a lotta life left in ‘em.
Michael snaps a picture of me in his new cowboy hat. Beautiful in his eyes.
Adventurers rekindle smoldering embers with hot breath and careful tending.
Celebrate with sweet red wine.
A thrift store wedding band for $7. The luckiest couple in Texas.
