Proposals and Disposals

Arranged marriages by their parents 
Divorces all married for their own causes 
Marriages arranged on their own cases 
Divorces forced by their own parents

Stop Dowry

Marriages are made in heaven,
but dowry has made it a business transaction,
Tears roll down from my eyes,
When i think about the burning brides,
Stop dowry,stop dowry...

Animals arrange marriages; nourish,
Arranged at fun Disneyland

Merge, self-discovery over-flourish.

However, there is an issue of Fire

Growing their children 
As spouses their parents

Back to their parents 
In laws, breeding more children 

Giving in marriage and 
Bringing to divorce now 
A common like business

Premium Member Passages ---- and -- Pauses

there are passages in life
  gaps between jobs
  between marriages
  even between... deaths
    hear the stillness

there are pauses in life
  spaces between words
  some spoken
  others mute
  a few...written...
    feel the emotions

Marriages Last If:

Marriages last if ,both spouses remember,
to fight to save the marriage. 
Not to fight to win a disagreement.
Love each other,make each other,
make a commitment to each other.
One can not love for two.
Like dancing,it just takes two to tango!

Families Who Pray Together

Families who pray together stay together, that is true.
Families should pray together because it's the right thing to do.
Families who pray together will please God and they will be blessed.
Families need to pray together because many marriages are a mess.

Tomorrow Was

Echoes of tomorrow dance around my brain

Songs of joy and sorrow mixed in love and pain

Marriages of feelings swirling intertwined

Promises repeating as waking dreams unwind

A sip of morning coffee to fortify my mind

All casually  forgotten  as I face the daily grind

Premium Member Failed Marriages

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.

Premium Member Promises of Trust and Love

Promises are sacred
Trust is vital
Love essential

For spirit, for soul, for bliss
Angels present
When all three meet,

Proposals, Marriages, Funerals
Promises made in trust, with love
God listens in.

Angels dance
Sacred, vital, essential moments
Delicate, and sweet, pure.

Premium Member Marriages These Days -- Tpi

~  TPI  ~

  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"

For Now

We do it to Live.

We set out to find it, 
In our own ways.

We search it
In places, in people
In liquors, in antiques
In words and in drugs,
In marriages, in walks
In food and in paintings
In oceans in deserts
In love and in death
We learn how to laugh
as a way out of our pains,
We go and seek it
To live.

Love

what is love?
is it romance?
or just friendly?
no one really knows
love is something we all need
even if your white, black,
rich, poor, fat , skinny,Asians,
Hispanic, lesbian/ gay, bisexual,
straight
everybody needs love
because if we don't 
there would be no more marriages or 
babies
so love everybody

Premium Member Why

Do bells toll
Rather than ring
When did life
Have such a sting
No ring
Passes between
Our love
As bells toll
Rather than ring
I can understand
With all the deaths
Bells toll
Rather than ring
Surely
There are still marriages 
Amongst all the black
And death
To make the bells
Ring
Rather than 
Toll

Who Am I

My way smooth and straight
I neither hide nor get to be seen
I occupy almost everyone
I lay on their lips
Like how a poison slowly spread
So do I, I have destroyed marriages
relationship, groups, organizations
I'm more convincing than you can imagine
Am more loved but most abused
I am LIE I don't follow Godly ways
Form: Verse

Survival

When pretty girls often walk past
 I make sure I don't look too fast
 I like being kissed
 not feeling a fist
 and that is how marriages last!

The Land of Four Suns

the land of five suns
each with its duty

one dries beads of dew
that stagger as  rodent
from rabbit hole

another people’s hopes
that form in  dreamy eyes
of orphans

milk from udders the other dries
that no woman may hold a child

the last one everyone enjoys
marriages it bakes
as hard as leather bags
floating among hyenas
in grandfather tales

Divorce Memories

Morning bed
Sheets tightly tucked
One pillow crumpled

There once was a gal named Linda
Oh the marriages she did get inta
Try as they would to be as they should
They never could even begin ta.   


Wanting a home intensely  evolved into creations of delusion
Life broke through, one let go, in freedom lay the solution
