Marriage Proposal

The custom's all gone, No more will there be. To pledge all your love, On bended knee. To give all your heart, To promise to stand. Unconditional love, With the offering of hand. It's a crying shame, This custom's all gone. Marriage used to mean, For a whole life long. 9/1/2023

Some customs do seem to be slowly dying out more. Divorces seem much easier to get now too. Emilia : )

nothing is ever perfect, but if it wasn`t so easy to get a divorce, couples would work harder to make it work. take care, will speak (soupmail) soon, :-)
