Rake would have been my omitted word as well!
Wonderful write. Is this you as the bride in the photo?
Loved this one too. You're just too good at this.

HA!! Believe it or not I did put rake in a line. It was about her train raking gracefully down the aisle. Talk about an oxymoron! LOL! No, not me in the photo. Something I just picked up from good-ole Google. Ha! Thank you so much for your great review and compliments. With regards, Sue

Nice job working in the contest rules, getting all those words in, and capturing the feelings of a wedding, all the complicated feelings of starting a new life, and letting go of a daughter, all at the same time. nice images, nice upbeat tone to the language, this worked quite well eKPoet

I saw your review and my face lit up like a christmas tree! It came from HITCH!!! And as I read your review, I smiled from ear to ear reading it. To get the exceptional from you is what's AWESOME!!! Why am I NOT surprised that you love weddings! You're such a romantic!! And it does not surprise me in the least that you've been Best Man at 5. As you are such a super-cool cat, and have so many friends!!! And an honorable friend, you are to them. YES, I know who you are even through these cyberspace waves! HA!!! Hitcher, I'm SO happy that you, my friend, loved this poem. Has made my day (maybe even a whole week!). All your compliments are so appreciated, my friend. Cannot wait to read yours!! Hand-to-heart...Sue

Comment from Jazh
This is a lovely poem to read - and it must be really difficult to build it around specific words. It flows very well, with unforced rhymes. Good luck in the contest. :)

Comment from Curt Mongold
Ah, the ring. In my world, it's usually attached to a chain and someone wants to pierce my nose with it!
For those who can find happiness in matrimony, I envy you.
Great write Cuz!
Sincerely,
Curt

Comment from Monkeyfish
Excellent poem. I'm impressed with your ability to write a poem with a set of words within a particular form AND (this is the remarkable part) it does not seem stilted, forced or in any ways self-conscious. Bravo.

Comment from Minglement
This is a wonder of a piece for the contest. You have woven these words so skillfully into the piece, no one would know any one of them 'had' to be used. So often these poems where you use obscure words turn out to just be vehicles to use them, and would not stand alone, as this piece does. Great job. Wish I had six stars. Good luck.
