A great wedding or anniversary gift for that special couple! A poem about love, written by myself. The poem is printed on a 8.5" x 11" white cardstock. Poem is overlapping a black and white photo of a husband and wife (me and my husband!) holding hands. Can be slipped into a wedding card or framed for a special gift. Poem is below...
How To Be A Newlywed...Forever!
Say "I love you" as often as you can.
Sing "I love you."
Write "I love you." Feel "I love
you." Love "I love you."
Never assume. Forgive and forget. Be
the first to say you're sorry. Laugh at each other's funny jokes.
Laugh at each other's awful jokes. Count your blessings. Don't take life
for granted. Live in the moment. Practice your traditions. Practice
the other's traditions. Start new traditions! Be affectionate: Kiss. Tickle. Hug. Hold
hands. Cuddle. Plant flowers. Plant traditions.
Plant love everywhere you go. Order Chinese. Feed each other
cheesecake. Drink wine on the porch. Share time together. Act crazy. Be
weird. Let loose! Have fun! Write each other love poems. Leave
each other notes. Get mad. Talk it through. Understand.
Kiss & make up. Remember your wedding vows. Know that
God is always with you. Spend time with each other's
families. Start your own family together. Walk together. Play together. Cook
together. Read together. Clean together. Sing together. Dance together. Pray
together. Just BE together. Put yourself into the other's shoes. Stay
there until you appreciate them. Talk to each other. Listen to each
other. Support each other. Accept each other's strengths and
weaknesses. Stay the same. Change what you can. Accept what you cannot. Always
be willing to try. Stand up for what you believe in.
But, take time to listen and see it from the other's point of view.
Communicate. Share everything together. Promptly empty the dishwasher. Forget
to empty it. Empty it together! Laugh at your partner. Laugh at
yourself. Laugh together. Laugh until it hurts. Support unconditionally. Love
unconditionally. Say something you'll regret. Ask for
forgiveness. Never do it again! Discover each other's annoying
habits. Laugh at each other's annoying habits. Love each other's annoying
habits. Scream, cry, be angry...know love will
always survive...smile, laugh, be content. Smile. Smile with your eyes...with your
hands...with your heart. Cherish every moment. Give thanks. Appreciate to appreciate! Be patient. Be caring. Be honest. Be
yourself! Be devoted. Be faithful. Live your life as if each day were
your last. No regrets. Live. Laugh. Love.
