About the Poem
This piece was written 12/96 as a wedding gift to friends. Since then, it has been given as wedding and anniversary gifts over the years. Not so much the authors viewpoint; as it is the summation of the values one should aspire to when in love. Or perhaps just another poet's lament?
Marriage Views |
| by bleeding |
| First, marriage should be love all encompassing, total, and free. Love that grows stronger each day soft murmurs of Thee, Thee, Thee. Second, marriage should be sacrifice giving of self, regardless of reward. Gift gladly given, with open heart shielded from life's harsh sword. Third, marriage should be commitment utter loyalty, deep to the bone. Absolutely, no questions asked faithfully promised, never alone. Lastly, marriage should be forever family bonded, yet all still free. Lives joined with love, sacrifice, and commitment an eternity promised with - Thee, Thee, Thee |

I am getting married Friday, a long way from home, and not one member of my family or his there, so this reminder of what really matters in love was great!
Jack
The poem is very touching in a world today that does not take the sacrament of marriage seriously and it goes deep to the heart of what love and marriage is, a sense of recommittment to each other each day to make a marriage last. God bless you for putting something of this high quality on the Internet for so many to see and to take to heart.
