Two happy beings thrown together on long journey
Happily hover on honeymoon heights
Promised progeny provide pleasure plentiful
Time travels; glow and warmth of togetherness wanes;
Impregnable silences improbable fallacies and
Fluctuating fortunes result in fissures in familial fora.
.
Education and pedigree culture and civilization
Play truant. Wedlock rocks on petty differences
Egos surface and storms break to throw them asunder
Never to face each other and offspring.
Present predicament predicted the wise?
