Sestina

It was a beautiful day in Autumn
The sky was blue
The ground was covered in fresh fallen leaves
It was going to be the perfect ending
To the perfect day
And they would be together forever.

There was something blue
And a ring that would be borrowed forever
Everyone would stick around until the ending
She walked down the aisle full with leaves
She thought of when they first met three years ago in Autumn
There was no better way to end the day.

 He was working in her front yard racking leaves
To her the work seemed like it would soon be ending
She was wearing a dress of blue
It seemed like it would be a long day
She had been wanting to talk to him forever
And so she did just that on that cold day in Autumn.

She was finally able to get the courage to say hi that day
She talked about the weather they were having this Autumn
She had had not met someone like in forever
He liked how she wore his favorite color of blue
He knew from the start their story was going to have a happy ending
But he did not like the sound of her walking to the house on the leaves.

He had known all along they would have a happy ending
It had turned out to be his perfect day
He would never forget that fateful Autumn
Now he was going to marry his best friend forever
He liked how the air smelled of the leaves
It reminded him of that first day they met under the sky of blue.

Now that they were married forever
The wind picked up and blew the leaves
Beautiful pictures were taken that day
And it was all thanks to the season of Autumn
And the dress of his favorite color blue
It truly was the perfect day with the perfect ending.

It had all started on a day with a sky of blue
The leaves fell off the tress in Autumn
And their ending was one that would last forever
