(for BJ)
Of all the years that we have been together,
there cannot be a single one in doubt,
… but, one thing is sure, the one we’re in
right now, is best of all; my life bears out:
there is a truth, by centuries well worn,
that every man a woman will reform.

Very good poem! That’s what I’ve heard about relationships and it’s good people can change and adapt to suit love and their situation.
