Marriage

Where is a tree that blooms without its sun?

Where is a blossom within the trees that bring and fill our laughter in the air?

Where doth a petal come from when the rose blooms without the buds?

Where is a tree that does not bear bloom to blossom and fulfill our daily wonder with fruit?

Where is a star that is born to shine that outreacheth the hollow black sky?

What is a lilac that blooms in the morning with its dew?

Where is the lightning that strikes our hearts with happiness eternal?

Where is the taste of milk and honey in the Springtime?

Where could we not begin to love and grow from our transgressions?

Where is the seawater that kisses the shores without love?

I will be the one to be here to tell you that….

I will be the one who listens to your laughter….

I will be the just the same, holding the candle to your light….

How does the wind blow that the sails don’t know where the masts are turning?

How can the cruel wind howl without the skies?

Is it not that which is nature that brings us forth?

No, it is justice and trust;

Putting an end to all wrongs with love

Where no wicker candle ever dies out….
