Riverside held its breath. Beneath the trees of Fairmount Park, her gown caught the evening light like a secret. There was music, a breeze, the sound of her name spoken with pride. Every glance and every frame carried the same quiet wish: let this never fade.

Blue like memory.
Blue like sky reflected in still water.
Each step she took was a promise kept.
The girl she was and the woman she is becoming
met, for a moment, in the light.
