Nuggets Of Wisdom.No.3. On Marriage

Rating: 5.0


ON MARRIAGE

Marriage, now and ever is a sacred union
Of two souls bonded for communion
It binds man and woman as conjugal spouse
And on it, human society has its base

It should be an immaculate projection
Of the pair’s mutual trust and affection
Self giving love showers the grace
To solve all problems that eventually surface

Know, it is not always smooth sailing
As the storms of life oft sweep rocking
But if watered with tears and sacrifice
It yields a bumper crop of invaluable price

Marriage stoops to mere ceremony
When man and wife are not in harmony
When bonds break, it gives sheer agony
And even runs into bitter acrimony

When self is extinguished in matrimony
Sure, it becomes a beautiful symphony
So place it above mere romanticism
And never look upon it as an anachronism

Indeed self must be a secondary consideration, but individual needs remain, but in marraige those of union should prevail. Nicely put.

And so from Wither vanished your dream you have scaled up to these Nuggets of Wisdom! Based on these pearls of wisdom, I foresee a hundred pairs getting into true matrimony near and far.... Let them be like fish and water Not fish and fisherman ever....

You have rightly said dear madam that marriage is a sacred union of two souls bonded for communion which binds man and woman as conjugal spouse. Marriage life is not always smooth, it has humph and sacrifice. Here it may be quoted.....Know, it is not always smooth sailing / As the storms of life oft sweep rocking / But if watered with tears and sacrifice / It yields a bumper crop of invaluable price.. A great philosophical poem is well executed. Full vote.
