I Pledge

Kevin Anderson 1965 (Ill)

I Pledge

The sun rose for us today for sure

Another day, for our love to endure

The trial and tribulations that life has in-store

Our love will survive forevermore

I've plegded without compromise to be faithful, loyal, honest, and true

Forsaking all thought of betrayal of our honeydew


P.S.  I love you
