Aunt’s Wedding Day
On her wedding morning
She sits properly on the floor
clad in pearly white silk wedding kimono
Her parents sit on the floor too
facing their daughter
She slowly bows to them
putting her hands on the floor
She offers the greeting tumultuously
Father, Mother
Thank you very much for
everything you have done to raise me
Parents proudly nod fighting back tears
She’s beautiful in the bridal white
It’s also a funeral white
For this is also the day
her innocence dies
