M for Marriage
 |

Began a life anew
Chores and bed they shared now
Diligently stuck to their vows
Ever and always to the spouse true
For it wasn’t just a ceremony
God had brought the souls together
Heavens blessed them forever
In bliss to live their lives with love
Joy and prosperity showered from above
Knelt the soul-mates before God
"Let your light flow through us lord
May our togetherness grow day by day
Nectar sweet and seamless we pray
Ought not the world to lose faith in it
Precious is this matrimonial bond
Questioning not the need for it
Reveling in how it makes two hearts grow fond"
So together they made a house their home
To many an example, an envy to some
Undying was the commitment in their relationship
Very emulative was their friendship
With great patience, brick by brick, they laid
X they marked and wrote on their own door
"You're welcome", the board said
‘Zone of Love’ – from top to floor!

Child marriage is most definitely illegal over here too..LOL but where did I say that they married right away? They grew up and tied the knot at the correct time..:D
you;ve brought tears to my eyes. You are most kind and sweet to me. It is only with blessings from you and other elders that I can dream of a happy and prosperous life ahead.
And I want to tell you that I need you with me too, forever and always!
Mwahs n hugs
That being said, why Child Marriage? :P ;)
Y..."y" was left...
Let me add:
"Y" would they leave the mark to door
"Z"one of love - from top to floor
Thanku so much for your wishes and I am very happy to know that youo liked what I penned! :D
@ Sambarman: I think you've some visiting my blog for the first time? Thanku so much for the kind comment and looking forward to seeing more comments from u..:D TC
@ Lenora and Harini:
ABC poetry is a very easy genre of poetry. Just don't think too much..Let poetry flow through..:D
I love penning these..:)) Thanku so much for ur appreciation
@ Nalini: ur absolutely right, we can easily write a seperate glossary on marriage besides ABC and there are indeed more shades to that togetherness than only love.
But I sometimes like to avoid visiting the harsh facts of life and look at the brighter side!
Have added the missing line. Tell me if u approve it! :D
However, why did they mark "X" on their door? I didn't get that one.
thanks for taking your time out to read my piece. many have different takes on the instituition of marriage and this poem doesnt argue on that. I believe if one doesnt percieve the beauty in a certain work of art then one should try not discuss it! LOL..
Marriage is also a work of art to me where you need to put in alot of love and commitment..
You see an X mark on a treasure map too indicating the destination where you may hit gold. The couple marked a similar X on their door!!!
:D
Hope u liked my explanation..:D
Anyway, I left a comment here not for the heck of it but I really liked the ABC poetry concept and I also did not understand that "X" thing. Well, your explanation was really good. I understood the meaning behind X mark. Thanks once again! :)
