Once Upon a Bride

Muted effulgence, dusty haze Cocooned in muslin, soft Faded. I await your nostalgic gaze From the attic, aloft Shaded. My silken threads crackle with age Decades three, since you last draped me. As a bedecked bride, shy and sage Now remnant of a past Glory.   Penmancy gets a small share of every purchase you make through these links, and every little helps us continue bringing you the reads you love!
