What Counts in A Marriage

A Wedding greeting card from Hallmark given by Mickey and Jerry Clapham

What Counts in a marriage

are all of the ways

that a husband and wife give and take,

the fun that they share

and the dreams that they dare

are the small, tender gestures they make,

What counts are the times

they keep talking things through

until they can get them worked out,

the faith that they show

and the lengths that they go 

and the friendship that's never in doubt...

What counts in a marriage

are all of the ways

that a husband and wife will discover

that from this day forward

they know in their hearts

they always can count on each other

Thank you Mickey and Jerry
