Together

We slept the sleep of a thousand sleeps.
United hearts in joyful ecstasy,
With nature’s mutual chemistry,
We loved the love of a thousand loves.

We smiled the smile of a thousand smiles.
Languorous arms enwrapped, contentedly,
Embracing our declared fidelity,
We sighed the sigh of a thousand sighs.

We laughed the laugh of a thousand laughs.
Joined in marriage for eternity
And humbled by joy’s intensity,
We sang the song of a thousand songs.

We hugged the hug of a thousand hugs.
Then, bound in love-blessed purity,
Respectful caring – unity –
We slept the sleep of a thousand sleeps.
