No harmony from the two equals
No friendships, no courtships,
No partnerships and no companionships
Could run a long run
Unless one of the two is submissive.

In business partnerships and marriage partnerships, oh, the cheating that goes on.
Staying Away From Arrangements of Bliss
Few relationships are partnerships at all.
And beyond wedding gifts...
Marriages are more conveniences,
For someone's purpose to circumvent!
Those in unions who share with an openness,
Seem more chemically suited...
To be united together like this.
Others who join in matrimony,
Have agendas and timetables to meet.
The lure of being with anyone...
Depends more on the hunt,
And a game to win over to defeat.
Competitve are these false companionships.
It's not long after they begin...
Nothing surprises to hear of a riff that splits.
Those in unions who share with an openness,
Seem more chemically suited...
To be united together like this.
And those who have been burned,
By an array of 'assessments'...
Are more likely than not,
To appear after the healing...
To be the happiest.
And staying away from arrangements of bliss.
With eyes wide open.
And wrists in bandages after being slit.
'Oh?
These?
I cut myself shaving! '

Late wisdom
With time in progress,
Relationships fade,
Friendships fade
And courtships follow suit.
Goodwill established
Will die a slow death.
All would turn to you
As ungrateful dogs.
Who has met his death
Without cursing himself
For the good he did to others?

Submissive
You are very submissive to me my love and,
We are like the hill and the valley living together;
So we can protect each other in any season on this love.
It should be a bit wet before you use it then,
It will be very lovely all day long.
It should be a bit soft before you eat it then,
You will love it forever!
For you are very submissive to my love.
You should leek it when it is very hard!
Then you will love eating it over and over agin;
For you are very submissive to my love and,
We are like the valley and the hill together always.

To express
A submissive wife is a strict mother.
A henpecked husband is a terror.
A pampered son is a gut less lot.
A shy daughter is a straying lot.
Each takes another venue to express.

Friendships’ Yield
Friendships with the same genders
Produce in them confidence.
Friendships with opposite ones
Produce in them energy.
Hopes in them serve as a fuel.
Friendships last till hopes run out.

Rambling 1
you once
had best friends
time breaks
bonds
you refuse to
accept
broken friendships
you hope
someday
that relationships
repair
and heal
themselves
you move on
rethinking
promising that
you can
live alone
online
chats are
everywhere
nothing serious
about
long lasting
and true
friendships
they cause pain
during
break-ups
too many
unkind words
said
others come back
for some
utilitarian
reasons and
you have learned
a lot
nothing lasts really
friendships are
like promises
like things that you
take in the house
and simply
outlive their
importance
or need
or use
yes, it has always
been the use
you are not
that
never a user
and
they are
and will always
be
and so
here you are
chatting with
yourself
in some kind
of poetry
you always plant
the seeds here
and there is no
pain in
seeding
you never get
the chance
to taste
its fruits anyway

However saying that I totally support the concept of civil partnerships in the eyes of the law, and think it a disgrace that same sex couples have had to wait so long for legal rights, protection and recognition.

The most successful marriages, gay or straight, even if they begin in romantic love, often become friendships. It's the ones that become the friendships that last.

And ladies, build up your husband by being submissive. That's how you will give your children success; you will want your children to be obedient, to be submissive to righteous living.

There have been some friendships lost over this. That's the most difficult for me. I find it very uncomfortable to know that I was at one time close friends with someone, and because of jealousies and misunderstandings and so on, these friendships have dissolved.

The Gathering
A friend from my past
Proving, friendships can last
New and red blood
Rustles down my veins
Reviving my loyality
Diverted from
Emptyness and mystery
Suppressing silence
Entrusted friendships
Lasting to eternity.

How Could I Forget?
The more I see you...
The more I realize,
Absence...
Does make the heart grow fonder.
The more I think of you.
And in my mind you appear,
Constantly...
When you are not near.
My appreciation,
For long distant relationships...
Has greater appeal.
And in my memory,
When your name is lost!
That's when I feel blessed to know,
How close we are to one another.
Just to know what we share together works,
Is worth...
Hearing the sound of your voice,
Now...
And especially then!
When we are reminiscing that we met!
'What 'day' was that, again? '
~You don't remember?
Shame on you!
That was the day we first kissed.~
'That's right.
How could I forget? '
~And...
Your name again?
I've been calling you, 'Baby' for so long.
Your real name escapes me.~
'Why you playin'? '
~Gotcha!
I just want to see if you're paying attention,
Baby.
That's all.~
*I bet we have a better clue as to who they are,
Than they do! *
**Just mind your business, Harold.
Can't you listen to them and tell,
They are young with other things on their minds...
Besides stale companionships.**
*Excuse me?
I know damn well you are not referring to us?
I said,
I know damn well...*
**I heard what you said.
I'm trying to hear what they're saying.
If you keep your mouth closed.**

One is good when in comfort
I am not harmful as long as you’re harmless.
I am not spiteful as long as you are respectful.
I am not mean as long as you are generous.
Each one wants the other to be like that.

Harvest Of Friendship
For Carol Gall & Patti Masterman
Friendships can come
from many places near and far,
sometimes even half a world away
with faces we cannot see,
but their touch we can always feel.
Invisible hands reach out
across the miles to gently touch another’s.
Unbreakable links are forged,
bonds never to be unbroken.
Silent voices of strangers are suddenly heard,
welcomed in from the silence
to a voice never heard.
Strength is gathered in
to defeat the demons
of a sometimes lonely life
as we harvest friendships into our lives.
Friendships and distance no longer matters.
Hands now link to chain a message
that no matter who we are
a candle of hope is on the horizon
to light up many lives.
