Happiness Is Still Home Made

Poems

There is a romance appropriate for every age and stage, and it is vital that we keep romance in marriage if it is to succeed and if we are to achieve happiness for ourselves and our children. We must take real care, lest "moonlight and roses" become "daylight and dishes"! A movie star has been quoted as saying that "marriage kills romance". That ought not be and is not true if romance is understood rightly.
Someone has defined romance as "a long story of love". The dictionary defines it as "a dreamy imaginative habit of mind tending to dwell on the picturesquely unusual." Both of these definitions are realistically true! Romance in marriage is to be found in the long story of love that began before marriage and found fulfilment after marriage.

It is to be found in the wonder of relationships that are colourful, thrilling and practical. The romance of marriage includes all the joys of marriage as well as the hazards. It is a way of life for a couple within the bounds of responsible marriage.
