Father of the Bride by Leonard M HawkesAs the parting day approaches,
I feel my heart divide:
This love I keep within me;
This I set aside,
And this goes to another,
Who will equal it and more--
Blessed matrimony multiplies--
More love now than before. 03/01/2011 Author's Note: A "consciously Dickensonian" contemplation of 4 March 2011.
