That…

That we were married

That everyone came to the wedding

That the white was the white of imagination

That they all had such gifts to give

That there were wishes for us

That we would have a family

That the family’s curses will not be

That type of curse that eliminates blessings

That the guess we made of love will be right

That the night will be the night of consummation

That it made sense that we be joined

That our children grew to adults

That are not afraid to be a bit childish

That their own dreams will be something like mine

That they will dream of ultimate things too

That they will dream of love, marriage, and the funeral

That before we join them in the graves

That have been saved for us

That a bed will be made for us

That we will lie down together

That the moon will have an early rise

That we will lie down together

That we will die together like everything dies

That has known this earth for a time:

That was my morning dream, all this.
