Matrimony
by Nevada Kerr


Bound to the House of Mary
A husband pledges his troth
To the Goddess in all her glory
As she untangles the nuptial knot

A groom in the Temple of Hymen
The drone always serves the Quean
When moon honey flows from the altar
The bride reveals the unseen

The grey mare the better horse
For better and for worse
Sometimes a wife wears black
And the baron must keep his course

The seeker retrieves an old kernel
Wedded bliss has a deeper plan
To honour the Earth eternal
Not arrogant God and man
