One Promise Poem by Kurt Philip Behm

One verse with many rhymes,
one bell with many chimes

One direction with many charts,
one blood with many hearts

One journey with many stops,
one timer with many clocks

One horizon with many shores,
one boat with many oars

One gallery with many arts,
one ending with many starts

One message with many tongues,
one legion with many sons

One promise to many gave,
one present—time remade

(Villanova Pennsylvania: February,2018)
