Ordained Love

Lovely poem of a true marriage (between a man and a woman as 'the promise of God' Would be good to be read at a wedding ceremony, or framed as a gift. Blessings, Vivien

Beautifully written, Geraldine. Very sweet. Considering half of all marriages end up in divorce, makes me wonder if people take their vows seriously. A marriage is kinda' like a garden. If you don't keep the weeds out, they will choke it to death. You have to work at it, if you want it to flourish.
