On a Marriage



As I couldn't find any local weddings dated for today, I resorted to the Sunday Times.  There, I found the announcement of Mount Holyoke College graduate's Sarah Stein's wedding to Alex Koppelman.  I created this matrimonial poem from the letters in their names.  I am happy I was able to keep a Western Mass connection for this Oulipost assignment.

Messiah,
I hope he’s her hero.
I hope she’s his empress.
Met hearts wonder world.
Amen.
