Lasting Marriages Eastern and Western Styles

 

Lasting Marriages Eastern and Western Styles

 

It’s very simple

One can,

If two

Wish to make a marriage last.

 

Style the first is Asiatic.


Make friends from near relative’s side

Get friendly and get engaged quickly.

Then go and do your education

And

Profession and doctorate

Keep trim

Don’t frustrate and after say

Ten to fifteen years anxiety

Get married hurriedly

It’s been a long wait.

Undoubtedly you do deserve it.

 

Honey moon over in ten days

Go back to United States

Enjoy there and ensure your wife

Has a child before it’s too late. 

So your marriage will last for ever

Perhaps you will go to heaven surely earlier.

Forty years have since lapsed

How time flies,

No sex, only happy, happier ties...

 

Second style the Western way.

 

Date as many boys,

Till you really enjoy.

Then declare the one you liked most

As your Boyfriend at the very most

Twenty years work,

Sex, play, no kids,

No kitchen,

Only Tim Horton’s

And wow McDonald’s food…

Go shopping, go hopping,

Centennial Park, swim and have fun…

What’s the hurry?

Have some more added fun.

Twenty years will soon lapse

Then before you sexually collapse

Pray you have a child, at least one.

Plan it so as to coincide

With either ones retirement

Then the man stays home

As a house mom.

So another twenty years have gone

And

Flirting here or there

Who damn does care?

It’s the in- thing

As long as you aren’t legally married

So it’s not cheating,

Don’t get harried.

 

You are now old,

Kids have gone

Each others hand you have to hold

Then do ensure to kick the bucket first

At eighty-one

And

Leave her for seven years

Then for someone.

Let all before you go know

You were two married folks

Hope that all by now

Do legally know.
