dábale arroz a la zorra el abad

by Andy Betz

Disregarding the moniker, Miss

By elevating their life ibidem

Access to a first kiss

By elevating the veil’s hem

 

Together for life

Finally announced

As husband and wife

Finally pronounced

 

Replied as equally confirmative

Particularly not a suggestion

Answered in the affirmative

Singularly an abbott posed question

 

Rivaling the gown’s procurance

Her lips cover her pearly whites

For a final bit of assurance

She grips her father as her knight

 

And all eyes are on the prize(s)

As respected, the bride appears

And the gathering rises

As expected, the song plays

 

As expected, the song plays

And the gathering rises

As respected, the bride appears

And all eyes are on the prize(s)

 

She grips her father as her knight

For a final bit of assurance

Her lips cover her pearly whites

Rivaling the gown’s procurance

 

Singularly an abbott posed question

Answered in the affirmative

Particularly not a suggestion

Replied as equally confirmative

 

Finally pronounced

As husband and wife

Finally announced

Together for life

 

By elevating the veil’s hem

Access to a first kiss

By elevating their life ibidem

Disregarding the moniker, Miss
