The 55 Types of Poetry Forms - Nr 8: Epithalamium(Epithalamion):
In the 55 Types of Poetry Forms I have now chosen my number 8!
This one was a bit different and reminded me almost of some real events that I've taken part of as a Sign Language Interpreter - Weddings!
My number 8 is: Epithalamium (Epithalamion)
A poem written in honor of the bride and groom.
Actually, let me reveal a secret to you guys. I have never attended a wedding of someone I know privately! I just don't know anyone who is going to get married. But I have as I mentioned - interpreted on several of them!
But, there are many wonderful couples out there, either going to marry or are married today. This Epithalamium is for these wonderful people - for there are many of them!
It Is My Honor
One cannot be an entity without two parts whole
alas
I will tell you about the way of love through eternity: When a shape is formed Cosmic tones cling, and it is for that, we live. You see, the only thing which means anything when all comes to its own ends is love. For oneself.
Without love for oneself one cannot maintain self and without self, one cannot operate in this world. Thus, the importance of self has to come first. Be sure to take great care of yourselves. Although! This is not the biggest point of love.
When! You dare to love yourself you are fully capable of loving the other. Reflect on yourself as a river of gold floating from one thing to the next, and the ground has to be firm without cracks for all of that golden water to reach the distance of others.
And then there is the trap of digging to much so that the golden liquid never becomes a river but rather a still water. No joy in trueness can be given from such a state.
The answer is in the middle ratio: take care of the ground first, be sure to make a path for the golden water to flow through to reach its destiny: The Other One.
These, are my words to you on this day Light, Live, and Love on your new Journey of being Us.
Dear You,
Thank you for your moments of time, and thank you for reading!
As always, if you want me to write something special, you may only ask.
