Bronze Amulet

July 11, 2022
In search,      In search, of Bronze Amulet To give to my love as an Anniversary gift. None have I found That is up to the task. Most are unworthy A facade, a mask.

Not the malleable mettle that makes up our love. None that protects like a shield forged from above. No patina to show that through thick and thin We’ve endured the onslaught from without and within. No, our love deserves Much more recognition Than a candle stick or A dime store trinket. Yes, our love endures In Re-creation. We wear our Bronze On Our Hearts In Our Spirit.
