Without diplomatic existence they won't be together long..Without the acceptance of the rules no telling what will happen..Great contrast in this Haiku..Enoyed reading this one today..Sara

Thank you Olive_eloi; like your witty comments too. :) they show a joy of living. Cohabitation has become a way of life...but that does not mean that it can ever replace what marriage stands for. // paul

hmmm, maybe the first one is for first years of marriage and the second one is for all the years combined!! I sure enjoyed reading your definition of cohabitation, Paul.

Dear Paul: A nice pair of haiku fragments. The things unsaid come out after 3 readings. Deeper than obvious. Leon

Thank you Leon for stopping by. I find that haiku needs reading over and over again. When I go over my own haiku, I realize that apart from what I had in mind there are other points to be elicited; it's surprising what surfaces after several readings! Thanks for your comments and support. // paul
