Summary

This quote suggests that a so-called happy marriage is akin to a love that is well-thought-out and deliberate, just as a correct poem is crafted with intention and careful consideration. It implies that true happiness in a marriage is rooted in a deep and meaningful connection, where love is not spontaneous or haphazard, but rather purposefully nurtured and cultivated. Like a well-crafted poem, a successful marriage requires effort, planning, and a conscious choice to create something beautiful and lasting.
