The Promise of Forgiveness

When I said to my love, please forgive me? He smiled in affirmative consummation: Instantly I knew it was for good to be; He had no fleeting or flighty attestation. He was mine, my love, my one and only, But never such interactively nor by day; Free to blossom and mill, and free truely, And complimented me in every way. His forgiveness meant a solid promise, Of nurture, love, direction and guidance; That he would have stealth and premise, For that which I had so much avoidance. When my poor attitude did not do, He forgave, and took me through. 2nd of October 2015
