The Growth of Love
love is an investment
of intangable things
the the joy the excitment
that love undoubtably brings
the secret and the showing
with little unusual things
where by someone ends up knowing
personally what it means
the caring and the sharing
of gracious giving
the euphoria of life
recieved just by living
and bliss in a kiss
in it's element of surprise
a gift for the suiter
with closed eyes
marriage is an investment
in material things
the wedding the reception
the honeymoon suite
making love for the first time
that would be neat
vows and promises
that were very sweet
from this day forward
the promise of a life
with real intentions
not to do twice
to walk this earth
as man and wife
search together
for other delights
family is an investment
in the future
the inlaws the children
and responsibilities there in
the problems the worries
the presence of sin
and time eating away
the youthful skin
hollidays a chance
to do it again
aniversaries celebrations
of what did not end
and funerals
a look into a certian future
maybe a book that
contains an adventure
old age the gift
of many years
uncountable moments
when fears turn to tears
now is known the meaning of one
one being man and woman
someone who knows you
as well as yourself
your habits your likes
your problems with health
who shared equially with every loss
(to be cont.)
