Because

By Fawn Weaver on Friday, January 27, 2012

Since so many of you loved last Friday’s poem, I thought I’d send us off into the weekend with another brilliant poem on marriage.

BECAUSE

Because we have things in common 
We have the joy of sharing them 

Because we are so different 
There is so much we can learn from each other 

Because we love each other 
We look for the good in the other 

Because we are forgiving 
We overlook the faults in each other 

Because we are patient 
We give each other time to understand


Because we are filled with kindness 
We compliment the things we do for each other 

Because we can empathize 
We know what it’s like to stand in each other’s shoes 

Because we have character 
We enjoy each other’s uniqueness 

Because we have faith 
We believe in the best for the future 

Because we are honest 
We are comfortable to trust each other 

Because we are filled with loyalty 
We always know the other will be there 

-Steven Reiser

 

Until Monday…make it a great weekend!
