The PromiseA Poem by Katliegh MerrierThis is a villanelle I wrote, in ode to the love of my life.Seldom does life give this rare chance at joy That comes from a love, found true in first sight. Thankfully, I have your sweet hand to praise. Often it comes early, always a ploy Although for you, take a chance I might- Seldom does life give this rare chance at joy. You were always so gentle and coy Even in your voice the flaws are so slight Thankfully, I have your sweet hand to praise. To others you may have been a mere toy For me you have helped me through many a plight Seldom does life give this rare chance at joy. Although my ramblings may start to annoy It is your fault; you make my soul bright. Thankfully, I have your sweet hand to praise. I promise to always work to employ And bring your heart to a new height. Seldom does life give this rare chance at joy Thankfully I have your sweet hand to praise. © 2014 Katliegh MerrierAuthor's Note
