Poem for the Day - Cousin

Devious as the Devil
He stole my life
O what a cousin
O how I wish our parents
Were never siblings
I should treat him like plague
Like a stranger or convict
O cursed cousin
Bringing nothing but shame
With devious acts
May you be caught
Like a thief
Treacherous cousin

Why People get Divorced

The truth simply is when you are hurt by someone you love so much and have shared everything with, the betrayal of the loved one blinds all forms of reconciliation and forgiveness.
People get divorced so they can move on with life; others get divorced if they cannot continue to live with their partner while some think of themselves only and do not attempt to mend their differences. Divorced persons have various reasons why they get divorced.
But is it always the best decision?

Poem for the Day - Brother

Wish you were mine
And belonged to my home
We would look up
Admire and cherish you
We would respect you
Praise of you will be continuous
Your kind and gentle ways
Make me wish always
You were my brother
One we never had

Preparing for Engagement

Most women wonder why he wouldn't pop the question; having dated for years and planning the future, but there is no ring or aim to take the big step. Here's what to do.
Ladies, plan the engagement. Tell your man how you want to be proposed to, what type of ring you want (please be modest) and where you want it to happen. If he doesn't propose after two weeks, then create a story of how you bumped into an old friend who had a crush on you and you thought he was going to propose when you both went out to lunch.
Tell your man you were mistaken, your friend was only presenting you a gift and not a ring, but you chose not to take the gift. Also, tell him if it was a proposal you would have considered accepting to marry him.
Note the look on your man's face. If he is angry, tell him the story was made up; if he is sober, ask him when he'll propose and why the delay? No matter the look on his face, tell him the story was made up-you only needed an answer.

Poem for the Day - Aunt

At the start of summer
Was the thought of aunt
With the summer flower fragrance
Was the thought of aunt
With the long distance trip
Was the thought of aunt

All thoughts vanished
When present with aunt
Feeling of belonging arises
When with aunt
Always happy
When with aunt

Keeping your Marriage

Marriage is a difficult relationship to keep. When there are good times, life is beautiful; when there are bad times, life is unbearable. Marriage is like a sibling relationship. When there is conflict, there is a moment of silence or lock down but at the end of the day, there must be settlement. A couple that plans to keep their marriage must adhere to these:
1. Do not entertain third parties (even parents) into your marital affairs
2. Try not to break the bond of love
3. Money should never cause problems
4. Learn to trust at all times
5. Be on each others side in public even if guilty
Married couples must avoid these:
1. Public Quarrels
2. Fighting in the presence of the children
3. Criticizing each other
4. Past relationships (exes) must become history
5. Quick judgement of each other
The success of marriage lies in the hands of the couple.
