Keep Marriage Alive

I believe so much in marriage,
and in pure wedded bliss.,
when two people tie the knot,
it's sealed with a kiss.

A child needs two parents,
to be a husband and wife,
if the parents are not married,
they may not share his life.

It may be a piece of paper,
but it's worth more then gold,
a loving marriage is so priceless,
it can't be bought or sold.

A wedding is a celebration,
it's two people sharing love,
they're making a commitment,
it's blessed by God above.

Wait till you find true love,
take them for your spouse,
don't just live together,
have marriage in your house.

Stay committed to you marriage,
keep it close to your heart.
Make it a lifetime commitment,
till death do us part.

  • I cannot wait until I get married! You just make it seem all the more exciting! And beautifully done. This could very well be one of my favorite poems by you!

    This poem is really good. I think is definaly better then mine and deserved to get the gold, I think its better written and not as stressed as the one that got the gold, and don't understand how it didn't win. Its really really good! I think im going to add you to my favs, because if all your poems are like this I wanna read em! keep up the good work!

    This is so good. I want to be married like that.
    It is hard on my kids that I am divorced...
    This is perfect. I do not get why it did not get gold.

    Great poem, I loved the message because speaking as a child of parents who never even got married it's both a blessing and a curse. That said I can relate too If the parents are not married,
    They may not share his life.

    and I thought your last line Keep it close to your heart.
    Make it a lifetime commitment,
    till death do us part.
    was a very good rhyme and perfect for the poem itself.
