Shears
~~~
Marriage binds the couple
Awash in a mother’s tears
They are centrally connected
Like the blades of sewing shears
~~~
Forever bound to one another
With a love shared of the heart
No matter how each may move
Yea, never shall they part
~~~
Woe to what stands between them
Whatever storms they weather
Nothing can resist their strength
When they work together
~~~

That’s an excellent poem Osborne ! Love it 👍🤝
Thank you kindly! I am glad you enjoyed it. 🙏
The key word in your poem is “work” together. Like anything, a relationship is always a work in progress, always changing, and it does take work for two people (in any relationship) to accept change in the other. Very enjoyable poem!
Thanks sis! I agree there must be more in common than just being joined.
it’s all about together on many levels
Good stuff, Brad. Love this.
