Bingo Card and Winter Construct Cup Nov 23 thru Dec 22, 2018 Daily prompt inspired poems. |
| It was just a couple of weeks ago, November 30, 2018 we celebrated our wedding anniversary, well sort of. It was a quiet celebration just the two of us. It had rained all day, I had to go into the office so I was tired. Bob said we should go out for dinner but I didn't want to. So we stayed in, it was a night like most every other night. A far cry from 55 years ago, 1963, and the hustle and bustle of a formal wedding. I say that quite literally, my slipper satin gown had a bustle, the train pulled up into a bubble on my butt for dancing later on. The event was just that, a full Catholic Mass, a gaggle of bridesmaids, 300 guests, sit down dinner, a four tiered cake, a live band and an open bar. A new beginning after just one week before, with the assassination of President Kennedy and the death of one of our groomsmen in an auto accident the same day. We were putting mourning behind us and starting a new life. And life goes on, quieter now, simpler now, more comfortable now. ~~Judi Van Gorder 60 Lines PS. We did go out and celebrate with friends of 50 years two days later. We are old but not so old we can't still have fun. Notes: ▼ |
