DreamEvil challenged me to write 2 poems.. one for the Adult forum titled "Chain of Lust" and one for the Open forum "Chain of Love" this was the result. This chain of love was started with two single golden bands. Each circle never ending placed upon each others hands. A few simple words in front of God close friends and family. Though guests will soon forget this day the couple holds it close in memory. For this one moment in their lives is the cover to their marriage book. They will fill the pages up with love and all the things it took. Some books have painful chapters, some chapters filled with love, some just scramble through it blindly, some use guidance from above. The truth about the marriage book that each of us must learn. We’re writing a great novel with each new page we turn. So pen your novel wisely and protect your chain of love. Don’t scramble through it blindly use some guidance from above. |

wonderful,Lucie! I love your idea of comparing marriage to writing a novel. ------------------ May your days be filled with lots of sunshine and your nights lit up by golden moonbeams |

Nice one, Lucie. I especially like the last two lines. ------------------ *Elizabeth* "Dwelt a maid belov'd and cherish'd by high and low, But with autumn leaf she perish'd, long time ago..." |

Lucie dear, I shed a tear at the heartbreak that can make such verse. Well done, I hope you find my reply to your Adult challenge as well made. ------------------ Shall I indulge in flights of fancy hampered by clipped wings? DreamEvil© |
