When tears true trickle down, <br />The house resembles a conquered town; <br />Despite the dazzle, the festive air... <br />Prepared for the farewell of the lady fair. <br /> <br />The whole world to a standstill comes <br />And silence prevails amid sound of drums; <br />Aeons of age will now be confined <br />Just to memories in the mind! <br /> <br />But behind this pain- this natural act- <br />The lady's future is tied in tact <br />With a chosen hand, a merchant of dreams, <br />For a lifetime of love and bliss, it seems! ! !<br /><br />Debasish Mishra<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-story-of-a-marriage/
