Live and Learn

There comes a time in every man’s life When he considers taking a wife. Who’s to say, what’s right, what’s wrong As long as both feel they belong. I’m content now with the choice I made And know our memories won’t fade. So, listen now and hear my song As our love continues to come on strong. Written by John Posey 5/29/15

A marriage is the most sensual part of the heart and everything is kept in the heart. I agree love exists between two and no other comes into play between our wants and choices in marriage.

This = Commitment Jake. I was hoping I would see a more recent date to your poetry, but this is not too bad. I hope you will be back. It has been months since I have been here. My bad. Merry Christmas. Good poetry as usual. Rings true to those who want to make things work. Thomas

This one is so sweet! Love the line "As long as both feel they belong" That's love...finding a home where you belong. Thank you for reading and commenting on The Bridge, that I wrote with Richard.
