Dear Subscriber:
Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of
view. The theme for this week is marriage.
Today’s poem is about marriage as paradise.
I welcome comments on my poems at

Yours,

Life sings with an extraordinary passion,
Intent on being all one can afford.
For those who let their love their fortune fashion,
Eden is indeed a just reward.
So might we live in paradise unending
If only we would see the salient sea,
Needing need with honesty unbending,
Grace to love so long and well that we,
Singing each to each, might simply be.
