Vows

Vows

etched with truth
sealed by submission
posted in blood

composed of moonlight
tangled in twilight
painted on the sky

exposed to the stars
splashed across the sea
drawn on our hearts

tried against the current
written in the sand
freed in tandem flight

(chuckling) yes, I tried to be minimal with words on a large topic. Thanks!

Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
