. <br />It's when sunrise exchange <br />Embraces with sunset. <br />. <br />It's when the pacific ocean <br />Rest ashore - lie asleep. <br />. <br />It's also when - <br />. <br />Grandpa came home <br />DEFEATED <br />. <br />His tired eyelids rest-upon <br />The love he has for mothers. <br />. <br />A love <br />Fortified against the wind <br />Against the uprising of <br />Death's overgarment. <br />. <br />A love <br />He'll give for the truth of <br />One. <br />. <br />His hands, clasp together <br />A message that will last <br />Forever. <br />. <br />It's been twelve years, now <br />And I still cry why <br />. <br />Why can't I believe <br />That the brightest star <br />Echoes his everlasting wisdom? <br />. <br />. <br />Is it really true? That <br />'To leave a spring flower- <br />Is for the gold and the better.'? <br />. <br />. <br />sav 11-17-07<br /><br />Daffodil Decarie<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-promise-is-kept-when-it-s/
