Handfasting

Handfasting  
(Fourteen of 30 -- Official DUP NaPo/GloPoWrimo 2019)  

Got me thinking about this all day  
in the recesses of my conscious self.  
Was it a slip  of the tongue from  
Your lips to my keen listening skills?  
not one syllabled word tiny or heavy  
escapes my petri-dish and microscope.  
 
You said the word “ wife “ as a matter of fact.  
 
Immediately,  
my heart did summersaults  
and my brain took me to the  
Handfasting Ritual  
I’ve dreamed of for this and  
many past lives.  
 
And now I find myself  
Preoccupied………..  
 
Wife  
Life  
Love
