Good Love Poem
"Any Husband or Wife"



This good love poem by Carol Haynes is a great lesson in how a husband and wife should treat one another at all times. So many fights and misunderstandings could be avoided if we just followed the advice that is given in this verse. It's also a wonderful verse to be read at weddings.


Any Husband or Wife
by Carol Haynes

Let us be guests in one another's house
With deferential "no" and courteous "yes";
Let us take care to hide our foolish moods
Behind a certain show of cheerfulness.

Let us avoid all sullen silences;
We should find fresh and sprightly things to say;
I must be fearful lest you find me dull,
And you must dread to bore me anyway.

Let us knock gently at each other's heart,
Glad of a chance to look within–and yet,
Let us remember that to force one's way
Is the unpardoned breach of etiquette.

So, shall I be host–you, the hostess,
Until all need for entertainment ends;
We shall be lovers when the last door shuts
But what is better still–we shall be friends.

~Carol Haynes (??)



Give the Gift of Love to Your Spouse


"The One I Love" 8x10 Double-Matted Framed Print

This is an original poem by Genie Graveline. The print is enhanced with delicate, watercolor graphics. The verse reads:

"The One I Love"

I can't imagine my life without you
No one to talk to when I'm feeling blue.
No one to laugh with at every day things,
No one to share all the joy that life brings.

No hand to hold as I'm walking along,
No one to turn to?who's caring and strong.
No goodnight kiss at the end of the day,
No one to chase all my worries away.

I'd be so lost without you by my side,
Like a leaf in the wind or a shell in the tide.
My reasons to smile would soon disappear,
If you weren't in my life, if you weren't always near.

You are my partner, my lover, my friend,
My story's beginning, my "fairy tale" end.
The one who completes me, devoted and true,
And I'll spend the rest of my life loving you!.
