Whether She Wears Me To Our Wedding Poem by John Sensele

Whether she ignores my manifesto
Responds like ice despite my sacrifice
Tenses up with gusto
No more will her spice bother me thrice.

Whether her investment pays off
Dwindles into nothingness
Disburses for the poor a bread loaf
It matters if she tethers teams into togetherness.

Whether she receives her fair share
Of the love she deserves
As a matter of total care
It matters if love for humanity she preserves, reserves and serves.

Whether her love gets love in return
Matters far less than her sacrifice
To ensure her love she doesn't burn
In case sweet sentiments don't suffice.

Whether she wears me to our wedding
Warms my heart
Although we can't afford extravagant spending
It matters if we give our home a stable start.

Whether we crack chicken bones
To delect gourmets
To fanfare and pomp tones
It matters if we recognise and reward our valets.
