Garter

Garter

A Poem by Laura Lynn

Be yourself, they say.  We saw them marry
In due time, give up the garter, throw it
Religiously into the crowd.  For some,
It went that way. Some women threw a fit.
The washerwoman carries, whistles, hums.

Grown cold, two little birds on a wire
Eat their memories for a way of fall.
Religion takes to cold. To know Jesus,
Established nuns study Muhammad well.
Vibration and sound waves, choirs please us.

Your poems have changed so much. I never know what to except.

The third and fourth lines of the first one flow so well. It's really cool, what it does.

I like it, for sure.
