Matri-no-notony

The word does not appear in Webster's dictionary
Or any other word reference but it should since
It describes perfectly what goes wrong when
Matrimony does not consider its practical truths

After days of wedded delirium followed by
Periods of boring adjustments in living together
As monotony may provide the climate for
Justifying a false entitlement to sex elsewhere

Wanting variety may lead to flirting and affairs
With others immaturely blind to consequences

Safe and rewarding marriages are always fragile
So the need is to learn about controlling desires
Which promise costly thrills in cheap trysting
Eventually damaging or destroying loyal unions

Good sex and health are safe treasures in marriage
Easily assured by knowing that the urge to merge
Is in our make-up so we should never forget that
What gooses the Gander - also gooses the Goose


F William Broome 2008

Like Karen said "you are so right!" The last line especially should be a warning to everyone in Matri-notony,because when the light to be with each other starts to go out, then that is the end of the relationship. Thank you forsharing, Bill.

May the Lord Jesus bless you, and those whom you love, and be with you always, and at your side constantly. With much love in my heart, joy to the world,peace on earth, & ((((((((((MANY WONDERFUL SISTERLY HUGGGGSSSS)))))))))), sister Barbie
