Dear Subscriber:
Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of
view. The theme for this week is weddings.
I welcome comments on my poems at https://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com

A name and wedding poem about the need to make the choice to
love every day:
Time rewrites the contract
every day.
In
marriage one is never done with choosing,
For one
is ever free beyond refusing,
Free at
every moment, come what may.
A vow to
love creates a sheltered bay,
Not free
of wind and wave, but still a mooring,
Yielding
anchorage well worth securing,
A safe,
serene, and gentle place to stay.
Now
choose it, choose its joy again, again.
Daily
make the precious choice to love.
Make your
will the sun upon your tides.
In
choosing love, you will that joy sustain,
Knowing
well the winds that in you move,
Embracing well the
loved one by your side.
