A Promise Is Kept When It’s…

A Promise Is Kept When It’s…
.
It’s when sunrise exchange
Embraces with sunset.
.
It’s when the pacific ocean
Rest ashore – lie asleep.
.
It’s also when -
.
Grandpa came home
DEFEATED
.
His tired eyelids rest-upon
The love he has for mothers.
.
A love
Fortified against the wind
Against the uprising of
Death’s overgarment.
.
A love
He’ll give for the truth of
One.
.
His hands, clasp together
A message that will last
Forever.
.
It’s been twelve years, now
And I still cry why
.
Why can’t I believe
That the brightest star
Echoes everlasting wisdom?
.
.
Is it really true? That
“To leave a spring flower-
Is for the gold and the better.’?

.

Is it true
That to live a life with
Thoughts like these
Is better?

.
