Pledge Poems

Premium MemberThe MAGA pledge

Pledge allegiance to a new flag,
of these United States being run by
the MAG..
Once a nation under God,
now being led by a demagogue..
Pledge allegiance to the man,
with his ever growing Trump brand.
As autocracy reigns from sea to sea,
let the rich and the powerful
rewrite our history.

Premium MemberCommitments

Commitments seem to becoming a thing of the past
Once upon a time, you could rely on a person's word
Now that seems to be disappearing fast
How many times have you heard from your politicians, let me commit to you
This is a promise you expect them to keep before reality takes over and they don't follow through

Premium MemberPledge Allegiance

A union in ourselves flags wave
Unite in freedom, die in vain
House divided, republican it saids stand 
One nation, under God; only good rules
A stand for liberty as we ourselves
A pledge allegiance, even it had meaning
Allies of ancestry roll in their graves
Destroy the world, people want say 

Greed corrupts while people hunger in streets
North, South, across

Premium MemberPledge of Love

Romantic words spill from a poet's quill
Dreams of love in mirrored reflections
An unlocked chest, confessed to a swain,
purging what was buried inside her heart.
Sonnets filled with tender emotions 
and a solemn pledge of love and devotion.

Premium MemberPledge My Loyalty

The King sent his Prince to steal my heart.
Charming as he was, he gained control.
He stole my heart.
Enslaved as I was.
He sent me on patrol.
To vanquish the Royal One.
The heart of one he knew he could never command.

I could not slay the beautiful Dragon Queen.
Mesmerized by the warm transcending glow
I refused to raise my sword.
I

Premium MemberI Pledge

I Pledge allegiance to the flag;
Not unto the Kingdom;
Not unto the Theocracy;
Not unto the Dictatorship;
But of the UNITED STATES of AMERICA.

Unto the REPUBLIC for which it stands;
ONE Nation, not two or more; 
INDIVISIBLE, not split or torn apart;
UNDER God, not alongside, not above, not with, not without.
With liberty and justice;
not for most, not for some,

The Pledge of Allegiance

Now, why a meeting of adults
Should open with the pledge
Is something that feels wrong to me
And sets my teeth on edge.

As children, we recited it
Assembly days in school
And when I taught, each morning
In the classroom was the rule.

Just like the anthem, kids should learn
The words that we recite
On those occasions when it is
Appropriate and right.

To

Come Back

Come back and I'll offer you my
destroyed castle...
reconstructed...
Come back you'll have one
unmade bed...
A table that little
feed... but you will have
hungry love,
of a lover,
survivor... !

The Pledge

I shall always remember 
The happy days we spent together 
Underneath the tree of heart 
Where we swore we'd never part 

Even though I drifted away 
And in years, you did not stay 
The memory of the pledge we've made 
Through the years, will never fade

The Pledge

A promise spoken
Must be kept
And time is not an issue
For
Invisible barriers
Separate an era
And in moments rare
Unseen forces
Intervene
For redemption
Of the pledge

The Pledge

Red roses wrapped in thoughtful memories 
radiate the glimmer of love and sweet caress. 
Her shimmering smile that blooms fuller than the full moon 
gives radiance to a gloomy afternoon. 

Candle lit dinner with a melody for two. 
Two hearts that became one to make their dreams come true. 
His promise was to be with

Wildren Pledge

We are the Children of The Wildren
Protected by our  Ancient Pledge
And we benefit from its Bounty
As we dwell around its edge 
It is dark and it is fearsome
And we very seldom enter
As we live in awe and respect for
The Dragon living at its Centre.

We are the Children of The Wildren
Here in  our appointed

Premium MemberHaiku 13 - God's Pledge

fox and rabbit raptor wings
earth and sky and hell -
god's forsaken dream

cut flowers spent upon the ground
leaves of brown and gold -
trusts in life anew

blue robin eggs lay waiting
red breast's warmth and love -

A Pledge To Life

I know you think you will die
No, you won’t die 
If things don’t get better 
You will not die
If love fails you 
You will not die 
If your landlord kicks you
You still will not die
And the rain starts  beating you 
You still will not die
If your friends all leave 
You still will not die
