Start Courting Again
There comes a time in every marriage
when a certain junction is reached
When you or your spouse will start to think
that your love has reached it's peak.
When times like this come around
Do something other than you have been
Forget the NOW and the rut that your in
And just start courting again.
A gentle touch for no reason at all, will start you on your way
A spontaneous dance with no music at all, anytime of the day
A trip just for ice cream as a midnight treat
And don't forget that all important massage for the feet
During a marriage you are bound
To fall in and out of love time and again
The true art of staying married is that you don't fall
out of love at the same time in the end
If you can recognize this when it occurs
You can get past this little crisis and then
Take the steps needed to bring back the love
Once you start courting again
A kiss when you pass in the hall
Or a hot passionate telephone call
Streak through the house buck nekkid together
Skinny dip in any weather
Feed each other red ripe strawberries
Any thing silly you did when first married
You may think I'm crazy or I've lost my mind
But just put away those fears
This has worked for my Husband and I
For the past Thirty three (+) years
It doesn't have to cost lots of money
In fact it's better when free
I bet when you first married, you were as broke
as any new couple would be
Take these words of advice to heart
And have fun when your with her or him
Just keep it spontaneous and silly
When you start courting again
