  2. I did think of marriage vows when I first saw these three words...and "to love, honor and obey". Nicely done.

  5. Thanks to:
    Thom; 'Ouch' is definitely the outcome.
    Andy; I like your modifications.
    Just Someone; ...until they got home from honeymoon!
    Lilibeth; First I thought ok to drop 'obey', then realsise it could be read as 'replace with stricter vows'.
    Julie; It's just a ceremonial guideline ;)
    Narasnook; It could mean both.
    Susan; I asked for that!

  11. Thanks Larry; There are two types of obedience; one is born of respect - the other is born of fear.

  13. What narasnook said. Easier to modify the vows than the partner. Good job.

  19. My first response was, what is the obedient part? Yes, yes, I'm a bit of a rebel. Deep little poem. Thank you for it. Makes my frogs seem quite silly. Thanks for stopping by and commenting.

  20. A very deep haiku. So many layers and the words so well used.

  21. Thanks to:
    Yousei; Obey as in observe and acknowledge, rather than take orders.
    Nessa; So much of what we say is open to interpretation.
