“June Bride, 1972” by George Ella Lyon

At the time I married, the bride left
the festivities in a going-away dress.
Mine was short and white (like me),
with a beige fake suede belt and fake
suede pockets. My shoes matched too!
Not just each other but those pockets.
I set out upon life’s rocky road with
outfits. And Tupperware. A note tucked
in one aqua plastic box read, “This is
a celery keeper. Happiness forever.”
