~Patchwork Marriage~
I go my marriage out today
to look at it again.
I haddn't looked in quite a spell ~
Just do it now and then.
It's so much like a patchwork quilt.
With patches not a few!
Some patches large, some patches small,
Some patches old, some patches new.
Each patch brings back a memory
Some unkind word or deed.
By which we've learned to give and take,
And love with greater heed.
I pray the day will never come
When we take it out no longer.
For it seems that where the patches are,
The fabric is much stronger.
I do not kow where this came from. I found it and it was a blessing to me.
I am not a fan of all the teddy bears and that such thing.. but the message behind this poem was really good, I liked it! :P
