bliss of union (my nephew's wedding)

 veiled kindnesses

from out of a hidden realm

friends and family I have never met

affirm my broken being

the dust that falls from the sculptures

I have chiseled these nearly sixty years

my deceased mother and father

join my gurus

sharing a meal at a table

where 12 disciples honor the bride

 

a young man

                    self-effacing, as the moon…

            takes her hand

the daring of love usurps the night

they dance on the rooftop in the rain

the bliss of union that is an ocean

and we, witnesses and guests

each a single drop

of the selfsame joy
