A Promise

The soulful whisper of love’s promise Is a deep but soft reassuring truth Spoken while flowing like a flute From within the soul to be heard Another heart rests within knowing This limitless promise is everlasting To be shared in each valuable moment Granted by each beautiful day to live To cherish this promise of trusted unity Is with respect to be forever gentle This whisper will never strike to yell Each heart will never break the other It is pure as a white rose with dew drops Delicate as a butterfly’s wings through air This all created by faith to bloom and fly Any sacrifice will be made as it is shared When this is found, it will never be lost Not even by death, it will still carry on A soulful promise from earth to heaven It all begins from the truth of a whisper Heidi Sands 8/7/19 Placed 3rd in the One in Four Contest. Line chosen for poem: The soulful whisper of loves promise
