Quiet Vow Of Marriage Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Forms and designs of music being strewn through a poetical
intellect, collecting pieces and fragments that have broken
off of life.

Inherent and promising, gestures of love and romance peeking
above edges from friendship, lights being lit interiorly, en-
during an abiding love.

One that's been patiently awaiting it's just rewards from the
one being loved so silently, cherished secretly, kept closely
through the years.

Recognizing now that actions speak louder than words, reach-
ing out timidly, hoping that her love will be reciprocated in
return.

Shyly looking down, hoping to be taken in love's arms, kissed
and made whole finally, feelings climbing timidly, quietly
moving forward.

Looking away when his eyes are shining with amorous and intense neediness of her love at last, gently taking her into his arms,
whispering that he loves only her and wanting to know if she
will marry him.
