An Election Week Marriage


This week a friend got married again.
Her previous husband was taken by the war,
and though another serviceman had proposed,
she married a different man that she hadn't known long.
He seems wonderful in many ways--
calm, enthusiastic, smart, with many friends.
Some of his friends and their ideas make me uneasy,
and I wish she'd have known him a little better,
but she was financially unstable, 
and I think she was more than a little infatuated.
For better or worse,
I wish them the best,
and pray God will bless them both.
