Cling

To cleave to cling To hold to one thing To follow to stay Not go astray To have to hold To do what is told To stick to one thing Not just wear a ring To feed and pray To see everyday To live in faith Not remember mistakes To love to cherish Till one should perish To seek to find In next life time

The contrast with opposites creates a mesmerizing work of art with so few words. Again, your artistic touch touches me deeply. Love Lizzie

"mistakes" unless you meant it poetically as "miss-takes" as in filmmaking. decent poem though. tiny bit cliche. read worse
