Poems by Rm.Shanmugam Chettiar. : 2389 / 7449
Intention of the marriage
Together to make love,
Together to do nothing at all,
Together to share and care,
together to grow their copies,
Together in joys and pains,
Together to stay young
And together to grow old
And together to bequeath
Theirs to their offspring
Are the aspirations
With which man and woman marry.
