Marriage is the joining of two bodies and two minds <br />Past mistakes are unwanted and better left behind <br />From this day forth you must take care of each other <br />You’ll learn to draw strength each day from one another <br /> <br />The first year is hardest but you must learn to adapt <br />Find your middle ground and the rest will work out <br />It’s a beautiful journey if you are dedicated <br />Time is your friend and will keep you educated <br /> <br />Learn from mistakes and heed this advice <br />Never bring them up and never try them twice <br />Appreciate each other and be verbally kind <br />Each day when the sun sets leave your anger behind <br /> <br />As your journey progresses and the children arrive <br />Remember to keep your marriage alive <br />Your children will grow up and leave the nest <br />Make sure your marriage doesn’t die from loneliness <br /> <br /> <br />By following these words you’ll find marriage is bliss <br />And you’ll find there is no better place than this <br />Home is meant to be your soft place to fall <br />And the love you project will envelope it all<br /><br />Donna McCord<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/marriage-27/
