A Holy, Harmonious And Sacred Matrimony: Poem by Rev. Surujlall Motilall

M-emories, are of such to be remembered,
O-f a marriage, which we have had together.
T-ogether, we joined our hands in matrimony,
I-n this life, where we have strived in harmony.
L-ove, peace and prosperity, we have endured,
A-s we acknowledged God in His holy scriptures,
L-abor in unity, together with my wedded wife.
L-ife-long love we have had, as we prolong to strife.


Together, we have completed our destined-Karmas, in the
norms of existence in this moral life, which has offered
to us fruitful seeds to cultivate on this planet earth.

DEATH has conquered us, as life was so helpless,
when we gravely said 'it is time now for us to part'.

As we solemnly vowed to each other before our pastor,
we had surrendered ourselves to each other, only to say,
'I do'.

We gazed into each other eyes with smiles that hailed with affection and adoration, then, we silently grasped to the
moment, before God and man, and whispered to each other and
said 'I love you dearly'.

With sincerely and divine love for each other, were all
true and sacred.

She was 18, well matured, pure, holy and filled with
laughter.

I was 21, energetic and ambitious ready for our future.
We bowed and vowed to each other, with the solitude of
solemnity, we consolidated ourselves with devoted promises
that in sickness and in health, in disaster and in desolation,
we must bear the fruits of unity as one God gifted family.

Only death must conquer and separated us, as we are now of
one flesh in one body, our souls and minds must filled the
gaps and spaces of humility and simplicity, we must achieve
the good-will of ecclesiastical prosperity.

God, has made us both in this world for each other, as we
upheld, bonded and tied ourselves to such a dignified and integral standard, as humans together.

We must strive and breathe the breath of wisdom, knowledge
and understanding to the best of our God-gifted ability,
which He has bless us with, to reign, to live and to dwell
with fellow humans.

We have had the aspirations, egos and zeal to go forward,
to be fruitful and to multiply as a new generation, with
sons and daughters, who will join us to redemption and
salvation.

In spite of the many obstacles, that we had faced, which
were unseen and unpredictable that were ahead of us,
we had faced and embraced them, without disgrace and with disgusts.

We are ready and well prepare, as young partners in life,
to strife and to accept the many difficult tasks ahead of
us, which would be laid before us, on our dining table to
eat or in our bed to sleep, we would toil and build together, which will last forever, to be seen and to be remembered, as histories would tell its' own tales.

For us to inherit, with merit and for our children to benefit, from our works of endurance with healthy souls.

No mortal, can lead or guide us astray from each other,
we are meant to be one, hands in hands with much laughter.

With blessings from above and with my loving earthly mother, standing at my side with her blessings on my head, on this
happy day of our wedding, we would endure to the end when
God is ready and permits us to surrender I never thought of
that day, as I know of that day will never come, for us to
be separated and to surrender ourselves only to God's request
and command.

Our love and concern for each other, were so tightly sealed
and bounded, that if we have to go, we would be going together
in the rapture to come.
