The formation of a family

The foundation of human society is the family formation,

The coming together of a man and woman in a loving relation.

The family is an unit of love,enthusiasm,devotion and sincerity,

Regarded as the source of progress,strength ,love and prosperity.

 

 

Man and woman are brought together,the relationship is intense,

Extra marital sex is sinful and should be an offence !!

When man takes on the responsibility of marriage and a wife,

He takes on the the lifelong responsibilities of a married life.

 

Marriage should be plain and simple,performed anywhere,

Two witnesses present,the couple's future as husband and wife to share.

The man maintains order as the head,

The fittest position,hopefully inbred.

 

The onus on the man is to maintain the family's welfare,

And  intensify the love,sweetness and affection between the pair.

Making the family an unit of love,enthusiasm,devotion and sincerity,

Regarded as  the source of progress ,strength,love and prosperity.

I agree with Uilleam here. I don't think relationships can or should be enforced by laws. Of course stable relationships are preferable but I don't think the police can effectively keep people together!!
Marriage as only being defined by aman with a woman has, rightly, been consigned to history.

Thank you Hugh.
I'm in broad agreement with you about the effect of stable personal relationships on society; however:
You say that "Extra marital sex is sinful and should be an offence !!"

*To whom should that apply?
*To heterosexuals, to homosexuals, or to both?
*An offence under which law: temporal or spiritual?
*Who should decide what the punishment is?
*Who should administer the punishment?
*And depending on which country one lives in, there could be quite lot of executed Prime Ministers and politicians!😕

A beautiful spell of how family could be! Taking responsibility for our own actions and unifying the ingredients of your poem family can be the foundation of an abundant society.
