Knots

62
years ago
today
my ma and pa
wedded

ya know,
I really do believe
their love lasted
even though
the marriage didn’t

they’d just tied
too many knots
between them
to find their way
back home

one thing
all must concede
I’m a product
of their love
not merely
of their passion

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

Yes indeed.  Interesting concept, knots.

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.

Retrospection...
a good thing...
honesty
another...



Well done, Virginia

Virginia,  you could not have said this
more clearly or honestly.  You certainly
are a product of their love.
