“Scuba couple tie the knot underwater”
—1440 News

Higgledy-goggledy,
scuba-masked witnesses,
closest relations and
nearest of kin,

gazed at the wonderful
soon-to-be-newlyweds,
awed by the moment and
soaking it in.

Steadily, treadily,
wedding participants,
somehow performing with
elegant poise,

made the occasion seem
semi-traditional;
bridesmaids were girls, and the
ushers were buoys.
