A promise is just words, <br />That are carried on the wind. <br />Produced by vocal chords, <br />From beginning to the end. <br /> <br />The wind carries refrains, <br />Up and far away. <br />Into the clouds pregnant with rain, <br />Thats where a promise stays. <br /> <br />To be borne around the world, <br />On mystic winds on high. <br />Till you need it for rebirth, <br />And the promised thing is nigh. <br /> <br />7/9/10 Alton Texas<br /><br />Juan Olivarez<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-promise-32/
