Notes About The Poem
An after-poem in response, to Christina Bowrings poem "Loving Eyes". Blessings of light, and appreciation to you for such a lovely poem!
Listen to poem:

A Sworn Guarantee - an after-poem to - Loving Eyes

Fueled by affection, once carved to a tree
Strong as a hard-working honey bee
Found selfless in you, a sworn guarantee
I hope this devotion answers her plea!

I hold you next to them, as we both sway
A never-ending nights finest fiery array
But our song is humming in defiant foray
Yet it's being felt in every way

Remembering you, I'll walk an abyss
The consumption I could never dismiss
Heard like drum beats; her true beauty is this
To the end of days, we will be able to reminisce

A singularity of grandest notion
Vast is this lovely swirling ocean
Wild; like the time of locomotion
Perfections elixir set into motion

Thank you Deb! It has been so enlightening and rewarding to meet so many great people here on the Soup. I like so many I'm sure find true inspiration in our peers. As I was reading Christina's work, I couldn't help but find myself coming up with a response to each line of it. I honestly had no intention of putting this poem out there for the world to see. I was very elated when I sent it to her and her response was. "You should post this" I want to truly thank you too, Deb. For the now years of support that I felt from you. Appreciating, you always your poetic brother.....A.S.
