The river conveys such an elegant bride,
gracefully gliding down aisles of the earth
to ancient cathedrals, carved in basalt mirth
amidst air freshly scented with pine & fern.
Decorated abundantly by nature's own hand,
Bead Lilies, Trillium, and Bleeding Hearts stand.
Jangling nerves, caught in swifter current's hue,
they will carry her away to her moment of truth-
As hearts rapidly bursting forth joy say, " I do"
swept away, by a giant leap of faithful bliss,
bridal veils unfurling over one love's cascade
... into enchanted matrimonial mist.
