The Latest Law

The latest landmark law was signed Which guarantees the rights Of everyone to marry, after Years of bitter fights. So same-sex couples needn’t fear Their love will be denied And interracial partners Can rejoice as knots are tied. To those who grumble, I can’t see Why anybody’s choice In marriage should be challenged By an unrelated voice. Let all who make commitments To each other set their course For everlasting happiness (Or possibly divorce).

That last line sure is hopeful... Given today's statistics, the adverb of frequency should be 'probably.' ~ gw

What a joke that was to have a law in a civilized land, that denies those in love to form a union,l just didn't understand. Did he have to ask the Government if he could take her hand, and be before a minister and lovingly stand, because she was fair of skin and he was very tanned? Is it right that I evoke, I law that was against love cause a bloke was in love with a bloke? Great Poem Ilene, Enjoyed.
