more than a promise

culmination of dreams
come true
all vistas ever visited
all scenes serene

more than a promise

a culmination of climaxes
all heights of hope attained
even faithful fantasies
of zeniths reached

more than a promise

taut tightropes breached
cavernous chasms closed
frightful fears fallowed
tentative tongues untied

more than a promise

contentment embraced
sighs sweetly savored
pleasures preferenced
graciousness in smiles

more than a promise

lies in your
I love you

(sigh) This was so romanticly beautiful! (sigh) Yes, love is a solemn thing, one that should never go away, forever keeping close together, feeling for each other, with sympathy, unselfishness, and trust! More golden than an average promise! Excellent poem, my friend, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

I LOVE YOU??
Them are three little words that are used to freely sometimes but when spoken with the heart they mean more than any three words ever spoken.
(just my thought)
Very Nice
