First Nite With Favourite by gentledove(f): 12:50pm On Jun 05, 2008 |
FIRST NITE WITH FAVOURITE (aFtEr tHe wEdDiNg cOmEs tHe mArRiAgE) - WRITTEN TODAY THE 5TH JUNE 2008 BY MEEEEEEE The cloud gathered The people gathered Nature stood still Weather kept its trill Beauty unfolds Nights of sleeplessness And what if we miss church service And what if we get there later than others? Thoughts, questions, anxieties Dawn came a little slower than before The clock kept ticking like a snail wanting to win a relay No delay today will be entertained Everybody kept doing something Even the little children kept looking for nothing No one is so particular about the concerned Deep down, their hair must not be rough; their dresses must be well-ironed Every single undies worn, raises high hope Every make up applied sends heart beating faster Every movement, every act, every single word Makes me look at time and think of what’s next. ‘Come out everybody. ‘‘This is for the bridal train’ Mum’s voice echoed. My thought was so far away Soon I was becoming absent-minded Dad’s tap woke me up from my musings So many cars. So many beautiful dresses ‘All these people are here because of us”’ I marveled Before I entered the church, I received a call ‘Yemi said I should ask if you are fine’ – it was his brother. I said yes. And so I walked down the aisle with my dad All eye on me, I shivered. Dad strong grip assured me it is well I saw my Favourite turning to look at me He winked. I melted Vows were exchanged. Kisses in front of men and God Dances, drinks, foods, gifts. All for us, we gave a vote of thanks to those present The wedding was over. The marriage started. The night came. Our first night together. First night with the only man that makes meaning First night with the only man that makes sense First night with the Man who remains my Favourite 4eva Wrote this today in the office trying to imagine the anxieties you go through when preparing for your wedding and when you are left alone with your guy. what do you think?? |
