Dear beloved,
I bring you glad tidings
To some a hard pill to swallow
Others, its fills the hollow.
For I've seen it all
Our vows are unbreakable
We fall, but we always stand tall
The bond we share is unshakable.
Joy in marriage, blood to life
Is not something expected in life
But a mutual strive between partners
Takes responsibility and harmony.
It all builds on love
And the essence of love is confidence
Confidence in your partner's judgement
Confidence in their honesty and fidelity.
Embrace this, as we do, and find peace
For happiness in marriage does not come in ease
But its benefits are boundless
Therefore its quest endless.
Thy water of life
Burns reviving stamina;
Confirmed- I'm in love

You men, having come from the martial Mars,
Us women from fetchingly cute Venus,
Do for long engage in a game of spars
And there’s li’le change in this mutual status.
For, feigning love no more than carnal sex,
Man’s for long sharpened his pyrrhic war axe,
To get loved whilst the fair sex has paid tax,
Praise be, pretender that no genius lacks!
Conjugal life centres round, what else, sex,
If we believe what an expert sayeth,
Fains if there be freedom from sex or tax,
Cometh liberation only at death!
So then, there's un-spelt avowal of truce,
Abundant surges still conjugal juice!

(each paragraph of this poem is a Haiku 5–7–5 syllables)
I need to avoid
unimportant distractions
so my parents say
Exhausting yourself
in intimate situations
is dumb at your age
This is a yearly
lecture that I know by heart
- they must think me loose.
Surely you jest...
could you be suggesting a
conjugal visit?
Where do I find the
form needed to apply for that?
Do you have a pen?
My love for you is till eternity
It has capacity to endure till eternity
Yes, I have integrity to stay by your side till eternity
I have loyalty to keep you by my side till eternity
Some take my loyalty for stupidity
Oh! I love that stupidity that makes me king of your heart for eternity.
Behold the fatality in the absence of her love
Behold the brutality of our jealousy
Behold the Infinity of my love
Behold the divinity of our union
Behold two hearts in unity
Behold two souls working together with simplicity
Behold two great being that apply flexibility to simplify relationship's complexity
Behold! Conjugal bliss as it extends toward expanse of eternity.
The fullness of the blessings of my love awaits you in eternity
For my love fill the space's immensity
That our Jollity may extend beyond eternity
The longevity of my love extends beyond eternity
I wish u could know the intensity
Yes, the intensity of my love for you has vitality
Look toward the expanse of reality
And then you shall see apparently
As my love endureth till eternity.
Dedicated to My Heart Desire
Men from the martial planet Mars, versus
We, women from the virtuous Venus,
Long in covert wordless wars to discuss
Way out, change there’s in focus nor status.
For feigning love aimed just at carnal sex,
Man for long’s sharpened his pyrrhic war axe,
Whilst to get loved the fair sex’s paid tithe-tax,
Both pretend peace whilst battles wane and wax.
Should one believe what an expert sayeth,
Conjugal life courses on a feigned faith,
The two fight until truce comes to catch breath,
But liberation scarce cometh ere death!
Till then prevails there an uneasy truce,
Marital truce leads to conjugal juice.

Poet’s note: An atypical rhyme scheme using just three rhymes: aaaa/bbbb/cccc/dd
You chose seventeenth day
Out of other teens
A princess 24 hours ago
You have turned a Queen
Invincible is your beauty
Revealed to a lucky man
He has located the favour of God
For he found a good wife
You!
You are the crown bride of today
Other brides of today concur
You are covered, divinely
Tell me, who did that make-up
On your face, it's out of this world
Your wedding gown?
Classic in dignity
So, enjoy this your new life
Seeing your children surrounding your table
Go on an endless ride with love
You have said a good bye to era of being single
Two now but one
May you from now on, continue to celebrate
Happy married life to you dear sister
Pardon my absence, physically
Quite unavoidable
Your understanding is just a plus to your man!

On the fifth day of Christmas
My true love sent to me
Five golden rings...
The land flooded cold
In the impeccable hue of winter stones
Snows here and there.
The trees could not but fold
Into beautiful harmless white drones
Plugged into a snow sandwich.
Sounds of chimes: sweet chimes
A voice escape of a stringed Christmas song
Hushed melt of voices' patterns.
Joyful laughters: a joy of times
The bridal train, classic and long
With floras dressed in the garment of green.
The conjugal bliss of the blessed season
The vows and the divine kiss
The dance and a new beginning.
A fulfillment for love reason
A launch into a forever partnership bliss
The covenant godly and ringly sealed.
Five golden rings
Snow here there
Plugged into a snow sandwich
Hushed melt of voices pattern
With floras dressed in the garment of green
The dance and a new beginning
The covenant godly and ringly sealed.

a crowd of visitors line the walls while children
adjusted hats scarfs slips and garments
many mother's were distraught
the infamous feelings of it all barbwired fences
surrounding the entire place my mind
felt gruelsome as thou Alcatraz was in view
in an empty revealing way surrounding me
in a tangible animalistic calm the time came
he was brought out in chains
in a matter of seconds I lost my breath panting
slowly holding onto unfelt emotions
beyond the gates a few coke machines
seemed to be deecorating thee intriguing breakroom
silence sounded as I spilled my drink
creating an out cry of shameful sighs as I notice
the clock on the wall and the watches on the wrist
of overworked guards my heart sang out
a quiet song of thee sheer absence of humanity
humbly we embraced awaiting visiting hours to final end
It is a Moment of Happiness
A time of Oneness of Hearts
Outward Expression of Our Love
To One's True Soul Mate
In This Journey of Life.
We Celebrate Our Love
In This Conjugal Union
Blissful Marital Life Our Desire
Our Lives in Each Others Hands
With GOD, The Fulfillment of Purpose.
Our Search For The Other Person Stopped
We Have Found Love in Each Others Arms
Though We Have Never Taken This Path
But With Trust and Love We Journey Through
Believing GOD To Be Our All in All.
We Have Accepted Each Other
We've Taken This Bold Step in Life
Love and Trust Our True Sustenance
Today We Begin A New Life
A Life of Our New Existence.
Today We Begin Our New Life
Two Heartbeats To Beat as One
Togetherness of Oneness of Hearts
Being Each Others Support On Life's stage
Dancing To The Rhythm of Life's Melody.
