The Vow Poem by Efren Petalver Carranza

The Vow



Fragile as crystal dragon
Born by fire in delicate form
With that of life, it's inert to compare
Than its mighty colors with that of love

There's this place called castle in the sky
Where perfection is sheltered in a dream
And where the hurdles are forsakenly unseen
Until they come in the age of time to resound

The verbs of desire, here's this truth
Sought in the recital of a silent prayer
From sunken sun to the coming of new moon
Life has its own tide of high and low

To perfect the vow once pronounced
The lines that are to be held with care
For such commitment, it is the give and take
That grants us the assurance of happiness

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
There are many reasons of how I become the person I am today. My grand-folks who left me the wisdom of giving is dearly to receive. Equality is the substance of fairness and understanding tightens the knot of marriage. Be a martyr from wrong for in the end there is the composure of mending of what is broken. No such things as pasts are pasts; these are ghosts that haunt the mind only to re-scar a healed wound.
