Just a little poem for the two weddings I'm missing

The Key, my friends,
to holy wedlock
cannot be found -

Like safecrackers, then,
you must have keen ears,
and in patience abound

Or for sixty years
my grandparents
have been merrily misinformed.

Go, then, take a crack at it!
See what marriage has in store!
The treasures of love are best held
in the ring-clad hands of lovers, after all.
