A world without promises
Is a world without hope.
There would be no prominence
Anywhere on this globe.
Promises are like early paydays,
But only when they’re kept.
For when they’re thrown away
They’re as useless as pesky pests.
Promises are like amends
That you send far, far away
To only just a few close friends
Who return them after a day.
Promises are like jars
Some of which are empty
And more that will leave scars
But most will bring you plenty.
Breaking them is easy
Please don’t give it a try
Just don’t act sleazy
Or you can kiss them goodbye.
Promises, you are so very useful!
Your every essence
Will keep us all truthful
When learning life lessons.
‘Tis why I love you, promises!
You give me the feeling of pride
And leave me with a sense of dominance.
Together we coincide.
So do us all a favor,
Don’t do anything absurd!
And never ever waver
To be true to your word!
