Take plenty of Patience,
Blend smoothly with Love;
Fold enough Humor
To season above.
Then sprinkle with Laughter,
And stir in some Praise;
Add Kindness and
Tact for Those difficult days.
Mix warmly together
With Trust, Faith, and Cheer;
Makes one Happy Marriage
That mellows each year.
Poet: C. A. Lynch
In the kitchen of love, a recipe so sweet,
For a happy marriage, let's take a seat.
Start with laughter, a cup or two,
Blend in patience, like morning dew.
Add trust, a spoonful, pure and true,
Stir in support, a generous view.
Sprinkle in adventures, big and small,
Mixing joy and kindness, tasting it all.
Fold in understanding, gentle and light,
Whisk away worries, keep the mood bright.
Simmer in love, a flame that won't cease,
A recipe for marriage, a banquet of peace.
Serve with hugs and kisses, warm and divine,
A dish of togetherness, forever entwined.
In the pot of life, as partners you share,
A happy marriage, beyond compare.

Marriage Quotes
Poet: J. Ann Butler
In the kitchen of life, let's concoct,
A bond so strong, it can't be unlocked.
With passion as our primary force,
We'll kindle love, a boundless source.
The main ingredient, unwavering trust,
A sturdy foundation, it is a must.
Blend it with loyalty, strong and pure,
Making a marriage more secure.
Next, patience and empathy, hand in hand,
A duo that ensures love will withstand.
Mix them gently with active care,
And watch compassion tenderly pair.
Sift in understanding, free from strife,
And watch each other growth in life.
With open hearts, let judgments cease,
And let harmony and love increase.
The secret spice, forgiveness, shall unfold,
To mend the heart and heal, it's gold.
Release resentment, let grudges fade,
Love's brightness then will never shade.
Sprinkle humor, like stars in the sky,
To keep laughter's sparkle ever nigh.
In joyous moments and when feeling blue,
Laughter will lift both me and you.
Now, stir in gratitude, a grateful heart,
To cherish every day, a work of art.
Be thankful for the love you share,
Be thankful that you both do care.
Lastly, top with affection's embrace,
A tender touch, a warm embrace.
Express love's song, both loud and clear,
In this sweet recipe, it's crystal clear.
So, in the kitchen of life, our recipe is complete,
A happy marriage, a love so sweet.
With each ingredient, a marriage is stronger
May the love be even longer.
