For Sale.. Wedding Dress Never Worn Poem by Lodigiana Poetess

For Sale.. Wedding Dress Never Worn



The title tells the tale I guess
For sale‘one unused wedding dress'
It's silky skirt trails on the floor,
forlornly hanging on the door.
The shoes still have the price tag on,
they cost a bomb! - what have you done?
Gossamer veil now looks so sad,
the prettiest dress I never had….
A sexy garter, virgin white,
all ready to be seen tonight,
and underwear that makes me blush
all bought in such a mighty rush.
I loved to think I'd be a bride
with you my darling, by my side.
The church was booked, the breakfast too,
the cars and flowers of every hue,
the music chosen to portray
our happy, happy wedding day.
A dream come true, I thought, until,
you phoned this morning, and I still
can't quite believe the words you said,
you told me that your love was dead.
You met another one now she,
is destined very soon to be
the one who's going to wear your ring,
and have your kids and everything!
So what's there left for me to say?
But advertise it on E-Bay!
