Nudity, sex, smoking. 

Who cares? 

Smoking was never his thing, 

But it didn’t bother him either. 

 
His significant other had smoked. 
 
After they were married  
He noted the prize stacked up behind her trumpeting 
Addiction, domination, bondage, wah wah wah 
In a coronation photograph of Miss Montclair. 
 
“What happened to ‘the lifetime of cigarettes,’” he had asked? 
“I smoked them-- all,” she said sweetly.

I like the irony of the last stanza, as well as the description of her. This is very well written:)

{both loving the other. as they are.}

I've never seen a happy union of smoker and non smoker

[bubbafreesnake]

I agreed with your remark, Ciara, until I realized that the only couple, I knew that stayed together were a smoker and non-smoker, Bubba.

Well I said happy Union not lasting union. :)
But I suppose it's also true that love is blind
