I Promise (Sonnet #143) Poem by Tina Baaklini

I promise to take care of you daily,
I won't take our love for granted at all,
I'll prepare your favourite meals tenderly,
And promise to carry you in my soul.

I promise to prove love in deeds, not words,
When we argue, by your side my heart will stand,
My words will be soft as chirping birds,
I'll keep holding till the end your heart and hand.

But I can't promise you to get enough
Of your tender hugs and morning kiss,
Nor will I promise you, O sweetest love
To ever forgo that you're my divine bliss.

I promise you that my heart will forever
Be your home with green fields and red flowers.
