The child with his belly laugh is a good way to start. Your suggestions for a relationship are very wise and offer the best hope for a long-lasting relationship with the person you are married to. Treating friends and family with the same respect makes for good relationships as well.

Thank you so much:-)
Comment from Ric Myworld
Well, I've agree with about everyone of your lines for life until this last one. "Always remember you are unique. Just like everyone else." To that last line, I said, everyone likes to think they are unique, but in reality, there isn't really that much difference between one of us than the other. And what little differences there are: "don't amount to a hill of beans." LOL. Thanks for sharing.

That line just cracks me up. The original quote was "We are all unique. I just jazzed it up a bit.

Thank you. More good ones.
USE YOUR TURN SIGNALS!!!!! And if you are using your transmission to stop (or slow down), touch your brake pedal as well, giving notice to drivers behind you.
Best wishes.

I will probably add that one. Thanks ever so much. Karen
Comment from Bill Schott
Rules 121 - 132 are really stressing this idea of picking up after myself. Is this series really aimed at just me, and everyone else is waiting for me to figure that out?

Comment from Alexandra Trovato
This is another excellent poem with valuable insight. I literally said some of this to my husband, today. You use descriptive words and colorful imagery that will draw in a readers. Many will relate. You should compile these into a book, if you haven't yet.
Best wishes friend,
Alexandra :))

Comment from Wendyanne
Your free verse poem contains some very good advice especially for newly weds or couples who are engaged. Marriage should be a lifetime commitment and it can be very hard work. Love this "Don't laugh at other people's mistakes, or if you do, at least cough or clear your throat to cover it up!" Good luck!

I decided more people might read if I entered it.
And, I think everyone can find some truth in these little nuggets. Karen

You already know I enjoy reading this. Thank you for taking time to post it.
Trust is the most important part of a marriage.
Have date nights. My husband and I have been married 46 years; we still have a date night every Friday.)
