Pair’s commitment

                                                    

Let a pair spin around the axis of commitment,

Be grass to bend with winds, and defy storms,

Be kids to laugh together, not at each other,

Fan each other’s glow, and can each other’s flame,

Be blind to defects, deaf to doubts,    

Dumb to harsh tongues, lame to lean, 

With hands to lend and shoulders to shoulder,                                             

With eyes wet in agony, and lips, in harmony,                                           

With pride in what each other has.      

Let them grow as others’ envy.           

Lovers will do; can the married?

They must do to feel secure.
