Notes About The Poem

Our Lives Now Entrwined Through Mutual Consent

Our Lives Now Entwined Through Mutual Consent

Our lives now entwined through mutual consent
As we agree to face the tests life presents,
Expressed in exchanged vows of matrimony
With wedding rings glistening on our fingers.

In front of kin and friends under umbrellas
(Who bear witness while memories develop),
As audacious thoughts waylay in truth exposed,
When promissory words by us are spoken,

“Before God, we profess our belief in faith,
To love, cherish, and honour one another.”
Then embrace each other with feelings conveyed
And seal with a kiss our future together.

   Sanctifying our bond in marital union
   Beyond an objector’s inapt interruption.
