A wedding dress has always struck me as a singularly obsolete item of clothing. One just does not know what to do with them - I have mine stuffed away in a box at the top of a cupboard.
They seem to get that way. Nice choice of modifiers, Gemma. Mrs. Jim is the keeper of two, hers and one belonging to our daughter. Dunno why. And both have gotten rather frumpy, to me bordering on trash. ..

I took out the lace in my wedding dress & made it into a baptismal gown ~ The ending of the poem, with wedding dress, was unexpected; a good twist ~
Perfect. What is more a symbol than a wedding dress? No words of mine could point your message better than the ones you've used.
surprisingly interesting
much love...
There is so much story here in these few words--well done!

Unexpected ending!
I never kept mine, gave it to a charity shop.

Some great words here, some of which aren't used nearly enough, such as stark and unkempt.
