Notes About The Poem

The Things My Love and I Do Together

The Things My Love and I Do Together

The things my love and I do together
Confirm our commitment to each other.
In this, we share our belief with strangers
Through the vows we keep, said at the altar.

As we move forward, accepting our fate
To build our home and raise our family,
We won’t let misgivings secure a place,
Nor jealousy take root in a crisis.

Instead, may the lifestyle we choose fulfill
Our days with love, joy, and accomplishment,
And fear not the grip that evil instills,
But promise to agree to compromise.

   Remembering temptations are short-lived,
   And marriage is all about forgiveness.
