Laments of a Mason’s Wife

 

How many wives of Masons

Have ever given thought

To the wonderful lessons

That Masonry has taught?

 

Have you ever asked this question

“Is my reasoning straight and right?”

While your husband’s gone away to Lodge

And you’re left alone all night

 

My nights are sometimes lonely

But this question comes to me:

If my husband weren’t a Mason

What kind of man would he be?

 

Friends call me a Masonic Widow

I’ve been one for many a year

I’ve spoken out on lonely nights

And berated hubby dear

 

But often I regret my words

Gain wisdom, as I see

If my husband weren’t a Mason

What kind of a man would he be?

 

And so, I am a patient wife

Who’s alone at night,  my fate,

When hubby leaves for lodge with

“Honey, I won’t be late.”

 

It’s said Men make Masonry

Agree? I do not think I can

Because in my head and heart I know

That Masonry makes the man

 

So as he and I journey together

Through our happiness of life

I pray Masonry forever endures

Sincerely – A Mason’s wife
