Promise

 This weekend is Mother's day. I  thought about posting a traditional poem in honor of that day, then I thought perhaps something a bit different would best suit my readers.  This is the result, I hope you will enjoy this poem.

Promise

 

You said you saw

What none others could see

You said you saw promise lying deep

Inside of me

 

The promise was in the way that I smiled

The warm glow in my eyes

That flickered ever so slightly with possibility

 

You said promise lay in the awareness

That ignited  my cinnamon soft skin    

Underneath your roaming hand

 

Promise within a fervent sweet mouth

 That met yours passionately

 

You said you felt promise

In my long sculpture legs

Wrapped tightly around your waist

 

Promise in the hungry way

our bodies entwine  

And the momentum of our harmonious

Sensual dance

 

You said you heard promise

Not from the words I spewed

In sensual bliss

But from my body which

 spoke  in volumes

in the fluid release

in orgasmic  tremors

 

Holding me in your arms

He said, The spark has been ignited

 a Promise made will exist

 

Promise lay within me

A small beam of hope

inside the darkness

Of a broken spirit

Seeking purchase, seeking light

Promise struggle to find the might

 

A promise to keep

Through doubt and disbelief

Through pain and tears

 Promise finally emerged

from it’s darken shell

 

I finally held Promise

An eight pound baby girl

She was the promise

 of your seed given in faith
