Start Courting Again
There comes a time in every marriage,
when a certain junction is reached.
When you or your spouse will start to think,
that your love has reached it's peak.
When times like this come around,
do something other than you have been.
Forget the NOW and the rut your in
and just start courting again.
A gentle touch for no reason at all, will start you on your way.
A spontaneous dance with no music, anytime of the day.
A trip just for ice cream as a midnight treat,
don't forget that all important massage for the feet.
During a marriage you are bound
to fall in and out of love time and again.
The true art of staying married, is that you don't fall
out of love at the same time in the end.
If you can recognize this when it occurs,
you can get past this little crisis and then,
take the steps needed to bring back the love,
once you start courting again.
A kiss when you pass in the hall,
or a hot passionate telephone call.
Streak through the house buck nekkid together,
Skinny dip in any weather.
Feed each other red ripe strawberries,
any thing silly you did when first married.
You may think I'm crazy or I've lost my mind.
But just put away those fears,
this has worked for my Husband and I,
for the past thirty five plus years.
It doesn't have to cost lots of money.
In fact it's better when free.
I bet when you first married, you were as broke,
as any new couple would be.
Take these words of advice to heart
And have fun when your with her or him.
Just keep it spontaneous and silly,
when you start courting again.
