Notes About The Poem

Pinky Promise

seek shelter
     in my loving
          embrace;
               your safest place.

should the stars desert
     the night sky,
          should spring
               flowers wilt,

should the moon
     lose its glow
          should the sun
               lose most of its warmth,

my arms still won't release
     its
        hold...pinky promise!
