Will You Share Your Life with Me

July 19, 2017

Dear Subscriber:

Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of view. This week’s theme is proposing marriage and getting engaged.

Today’s poem is a poem proposing marriage that emphasizes how much of married life is shared.

I welcome comments on my poems at https://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com.

Yours,

Nick Gordon

Will you share your life with me,
Your passions, hopes, and dreams?
Your happy days, your everydays,
Your days no light redeems?

Will you share your life with me,
Your body and your soul?
Becoming willingly a part
That was a simple whole?

Will you share your life with me,
Your parents, children, friends?
Some long loved, some not yet born,
Some that fortune sends?

Will you share your life with me,
Your love your whole life through?
For if you will, it is my will
To share my life with you.
