Married Life

Married Life
Inadequate Words for an Ineffable Unity,
Feelings in Thought, Such As May or June(ity),
Goethe: "Love is Ideal, Marriage is Real"
Often I Pull North, My Wife Southereal,
If I Follow My Compass Regardless,
Temperature Rises Despite Latitudeness,
Chava "Keneged", Opposite, Corresponding,
To Adam, Depending on My Dictionary Thing,
Dissonance or Harmony Says the Crib,
Either Way, My or Each Chava Came From Our Rib,
The "Samech" Circle Symbolizes a Gold Ring,
Samech  Makes It's Chumash Beginning,
In "Vayisgor" Meaning "He Closed Over",
Adam's Missing Rib Gash Hashem Did Cover,
Samech as a Word is Support,
North or South is Our Tug of War,
If I Head South and Shed for the Climate,
I Can Dress My Missing Rib, Heal My Mate,
Or I Insist, Resist, And Can Holler & Hoot,
And By Doing So, Shoot Myself in the Foot!

Hey, you said it: 'Shoot Myself in the Foot!' ... Ha, Ha: Ain't it the truth? Aren't we men always doing that with out wives?...Of course, if we didn't do it, they'd have to shoot us ourselves. LOL. Have a good Shabbos, Chaim! Blessings, Gershon
