Married Love, a Treasure-Trove

Married Love, a Treasure-Trove

A husband’s love assured

In wedded Life having blossomed

And now bearing fruit.

Day by day, love

Stores up treasured memories.

Children stretching,

Perfecting love,

Learn to imitate love.

Year by year, growth

Measures memories.

Friendships deepening,

Burdens shared.

Goodbyes more frequent,

Yet, distance designs

Memories from fidelity to friends.

The Ancient of Ages breathes

Spiritual youth

With fulfilled promises

And memories of days before,

Now, and forevermore.

True Friends

True Friends

Love at first sight,

A rare occurrence.

An acquaintance, a well-wisher

Drinks superficially

Of another’s reality.

Wait some years

But keep in touch

Not in memories

But in sharings

Of daily reality.

What is revealed

Is a remaining few,

Perhaps, only two.

With true friends

The treasure is reality.

Two In One

Each leaves the past

To cleave to the Presence.

No pulling apart

And growth will be expected.

From two cells

Come one life.

A miracle indeed

Has happened.

How can this be

While two we still see?

Look beyond what you see

And come to know this Mystery.
