An accident

I married him by accident,
after a single day of love,
in the house we were resident,
yet I do not know why and how.

his looks were striking and sublime,
his smile looked radiant, just rich,
wed in a day? a foolish crime?
some called me a whore, some, a bi*ch.

we moved to his niche hill top home,
wealth and beauty was all our own,
in shield of our love we two roam,
time and moments, children are grown.

there waits kiss with embrace at home,
same warmth, radiance I have known,
our love enigma still for some,
old jealousy still makes them moan.

I married him by accident,
after a single day of love,
our love has since stayed radiant,
I know well now, just why and how.
