What is a Marriage?
A marriage is a union of one lone wandering heart
Being bonded to another, so they never are apart
No matter where they travel, even the furthest shore
The distance makes them stronger than they ever were before
A marriage is a promise, a giving and a gift
Something that is constant as the pools of life, they shift
A sacred, special secret of a true love that you share
A knowing that the other will always be right there
A marriage is a lifetime of being with the one
It picks you up and carries you when you think you might be done
It’s standing up together, and facing this strange life
It’s saying ‘Hello husband’ it’s saying ‘Hello wife’
A marriage is a light that never has a doubt
Even through the darkest day, it never will go out
It’s a rock to cling to, it’s an anchor in the storm |
A cuddle when you need one most, it’s brave and kind and warm
A marriage is a muscle, it needs work to stay strong
It will make allowances for the things that you get wrong
But what it does best is that it sees the real you
And makes you smile and want to shout ‘I do, I do, I do!’
