Confetti
After the wedding party
Anticipation, now exercised
Flushing through life’s fascia
Never a moment of arrival
A season of green streamers,
Bird song noise makers
& blossoming confetti
After the marriage of winter & summer
In climax, a release
Pink petal paint splattered here
leaves evidence of a consummation
The commitment to Spring
upheld as much by the couple
as by the witnesses
To have and to hold
For better or for worse
To love and to cherish
In sickness and in health
Til death do us part—
Each season beholds our love
No matter the season
As long as we are still here
As much as the confetti of Spring, casted
Celebrates the rebirth of life
The color burst of fall leaves, dropped
Honors our evolution of change
Through loss, sickness, release
Through growth, health, creation
In Seasons of our lives;
Transformation—
The commitment to Spring
Depends on our love affair year round
