Failed Marriages
Written: by Miracle Man
5/12/2024
Many marriages are failures due to one’s inattention,
and it wasn’t either party’s lack of plan or intention.
But from the start,
they drifted apart.
Because neither party would seek God’s intervention.
Mixed marriages never work his mother said
But she was a stool, and his father was a bed
Yours worked he told her, and for a long time
He was a dustpan who had fallen in love with a dime
Dimes are plentiful scattered here and there
His mother said “to marry one I would not dare”.
Dustpan reminded his mother it was his life.
Then he made the shiny dime his brand new wife.
I've never been married but I'm a spouse as I'm
partnered with the spirit
These false marriages are underhanded so pay
close attention to discern it
Some things attach because they're desperate to live
through you & what you have
If you look closely it's not adding up but yet & still
it's about the math
Sadly this is where we're at after all the places we could
& should have been
We're engaged in battles without our knowledge but
the truth always fights to win
These soul ties are bound to happen & sometimes the
binds expose their flaws
Before you know it you're caught in the current being
swept away by natural law
Sometimes contracts are signed with disregard to what's
best for you & your inner self
Always take stock before you invest as it will affect your
inner wealth
They move with stealth to throw you off but keep your
balance & walk the line
Beware of false marriages as they cross boundaries as
well as spiritual & legal lines
Some bear false witness telling lies but this was always
how it would go
Eventually the masks will slip to expose the face that
was always meant to show

Abner got divorced before he married
His new wife Mae found that kind of scary
But she knelt at the altar
Though her courage did falter
"Bet 'my BIG man' is really a faerie"
'TPI?' ~ Why, that's
'Totally Politically Incorrect!'

“Now we see but a poor reflection
as in a mirror;
then we shall see face to face.
Now I know in part;
then - I shall know fully,
even as I am fully known”

Giving in marriage to in laws
Growing their children
As spouses their parents
Returning their spouses
Back to their parents
In laws, breeding more children
Giving in marriage and
Bringing to divorce now
A common like business
So many marriages
Are failing today
Not because of disappointing sex
That's not why your lover's your ex
And don't tell me your stars no longer align
Or that 'interests naturally diverge' over time
Psychologists will point to a lack of communication
'Cos it'll get 'em featured in a magazine publication
No, Folks -- The real reason for a couple's cold war
Is that the other won't admit that he or she snores
During the time period, intimacy was desired and new, I didn’t answer to, and there was nobody else but you. Learning again, and putting in to play, the tenets And Strengths, that allow friendship to grow and renew, sounds like a good way to shorten bouts of melancholy, just not seeing the color blue. Entering into marriage, easy to do but to stay married, is there anything that can keep you stuck on me, me stuck on you, a marriage glue? How about a pledge to, and belief in each other, No matter what comes to pass, we would not forget how to use proven tools of friendship, to overcome all mistakes, and cover each other’s ass.
Motives for marriages are well known!
She- want to climb on husband's neck.
His dreams are soaring much below,
Somewhere around lady's legs.
They used to dream of a white picket fence
Around a little white three bedroom house
There were times at first when they had their doubts
Life together just didn't make much sense
But they scraped and struggled with no pretense
Both tried mightily to be a really good spouse
Children were born and love started to shout
They switched sides once on offense then defense
Then bought a brick home on top of a hill
With four bedrooms and a two car garage
Everybody had their own private room
The old house seemed to always have a chill
The white picket fence was just a mirage
Seems their marriage was just a mirage too
an original poem by the "Poemdog" Daniel Turner

Q divorced U,
Marrying W,
In key boards,
Why double U,
Not enough one U?
What’s Happening to Marriages Today?
I was listening to someone just the other day…
And I couldn’t believe what he had to say!
He had left his wife and children for another!
She was young enough to be his daughter!
Here they were, “in love” and holding hands!
Hoping to soon, get their “wedding bands!”
They were pretending that this was so “cool.”
Living now by their own “set of rules!”
How sick and disgusting this is getting to be!
Is this something that many can’t see?
God gave us Adam and Eve to become one.
To bear fruit through daughters and sons!
He gave us marriage as holy vows are made.
Not to march in an “adulterous parade!”
We are treading on very dangerous ground!
Faithfulness and commitment
are scarcely found!
The very definition of marriage is changing!
As the family unit is always rearranging!
Our only hope is in Jesus! And him alone!
Let’s promote his love! Into our hearts and home!
Let’s allow his love to be our heart’s glue!
And bring new meaning to the words; “I love you!”
May his love bind our hearts and lives together!
And remain faithful to each other forever!
By Jim Pemberton
I wish parents should express their motive behind hurrying
and forcing their young girls into marriage!
And what is wrong with our legislators and law enforcement angencies
who can afford to turn a blind eye to the torture experiencing young girls!
Honestly,the practice has led to many premature babies;
and deaths of our young girls during child birth,due to excessive loss
of blood and labour complications!
MARRIAGES
Governor Gerry Brown marries Amanda Rice
She becomes Amanda Brown-Rice - look!
David Soul and Marguerita Cook? She’s become a Soul-Cook
Stephen Fry and Amanda Fish -- the Fry-Fish couple - nice!
One of the Brothers Grimm married a girl called Betsy Reaper
Soon she was a Grimm-Reaper to be seen.
He’s Mr. Black. She’s Ms green, now turned Black-Green,
A close friend of John Windows-Peeper.
Going round to visit the Bird-Trappers tonight?
No honey, thought I’d pop in and see the Trouser-Wetters.

NOTE
All these unusual surnames really exist and many more besides; and the
trend to double-barreling names sometimes does produce funny results .
The dolls wed in mock marriage
And lived together
Till they were in rags
And forgotten forever
They too wedded when doll like
Dreamed together like none else
But their marriage a mock
Only lasted for a while
Mock marriage which is of the two?
The dolls’ or of those who are dolls
Who wait for time to turn them into rags
Or choose to be rags before their times???????
