The Day of Infamy

I can't imagine what goes through a girls mind, As she lives grows and encounters the blues, Looking for prince charming in the nick of time, To carry her off on a journey that begins with two. Most guys I know tremble at the thoughts of getting married, They run hide say not for sale and crack other jokes for fun, Guys think ball chain hang us now or let me be buried, However with smitten heart they come with eyes fixed on one. The day comes which the two have planned at last, It seemed like forever this moment to arrive, Hand in hand giving rings and vows shall they cast, The Lord over them teaching them how to thrive. Next stop vacation fun and the honey moon suite, Then lessons of how to live together and pet peeves will spawn, Moving on in their future we hear the pitter patter of little feet, A home the lady will keep tidy while the man cuts the lawn. Years will pass by and changes shall take place, Children now grown and ready to leave the nest, But the two remain in tact thankful for each other and new space, Knowing it was God who helped them excel and pass each test. Hebrews 13:4a - "Marriage is honourable in all,..."
