In the poem “Thinkin’ on Marryin’”, the speaker recounts how she met the man she would later consider marrying. The details of their first encounter might vary depending on the specific version of the poem you are referring to, as there is no universally recognized poem with this title that is widely studied or anthologized. If this poem is a contemporary or less well-known piece, you may need to refer to the specific text for the exact details of their meeting. Generally, in poems that discuss the theme of courtship or meeting a future spouse, the meeting could be described in a variety of ways: a chance encounter, a planned introduction, at a social event, through mutual friends, or in the course of daily life. Without the specific text, one can only speculate about the circumstances under which the speaker met her potential spouse.
