(hah, poetic works.)
***
Morning
Where roses are turning from black in to white,
Where the sky is unmasked by the filtering light.
Where peace draws a blanket of soft silent grey,
The night clings in vain as it's stolen away.
The morning song rings cross the vast purple skies,
The night meets the mountain and wistfully dies.
The sun pours a goblet of pink velvet dawn,
The moon drops a curtsy farewell and is gone.
***
Memories
Echoes whisper softly, many tales are left untold,
Tomorrow in the mist yet somehow yearning to unfold.
The past still etching pictures, leaving images to mind,
Memories fading in the distance, left regretfully behind.
***
Freedom
Absorbed in the wondrous elation of life,
Unsponsored and free as the skies!
Life dances lightly on edges of time,
With boisterous devotion, spontaneous cries!
***
Faith
In the study of perfection of the human mind and soul
The breed and bone of all of us is not what makes us whole.
The ignorance that breeds with every chance that may occur
Rivals with our certitude and makes us so unsure.
The darkness that evades us is but fear in it's disguise
The faith that lingers in our hearts, the fear can not defy.
With every thought of ignorance, resistance battles stronger.
The darkness loathes the sunlight for it lingers moments longer.
And every ebbing battle that our faith attempts to smother
Can victor over ignorance if we're true to one another.
***
The First Verse
God bless the children, the babes of this land
Suffer them not for the trials of man
Offer them kindness and love in their youth
Let innocence blossom in beauty and truth
Watch as they're growing and guide them away
From all that persuades them to wander astray
Shelter their thoughts, make their days ever bright
Cradle them gently to sleep with the night
And like the sun, keep them happy and warm
Shine in their hearts when their eyes see the storm
Stay by their sides as the years follow after
A childhood fulfilled by your love and their laughter.
***
War
In this world that's so miserably black with contempt
Where hatred erodes us and peace is exempt
Can man be so blind that he heeds not the warning?
And mindlessly battles in joy, not in mourning?
Will man ever learn from this fatal mistake?
How many more wars can humanity take?
Are we blind to the light, just refusing to see?
Or is war all a part of our right to be free?
Patriotism, the pride in our birth
But what do we gain, what's it all really worth?
Origin claims us upon the first breath
To ancestry's handed the rights to our death.
Each man is prisoner, and can not resist
The will of his country, if such should exist.
Each man of his mind has not reason to hate
But the call of command makes us pawns of the state.
This futile ploy's but a struggle for power
Where love for our brothers turns molted and sour.
'United We Stand!' but the evils resided
How in God's name was the family divided?
***
The Nightbird
The empty echoing of the dark
The shadows etched in black.
The nightbird's hollow screaming
Where no road can lead you back.
The smothering quenchless, growing fear
Delirium of the mind.
The dull and aching throbbing
Where a dark kiss leaves you blind.
The traces of existence
In a space in time suspended.
Revealing tales left best untold
That now can not be ended
A pendant moon upon a chain
A writhing somber breath
The nightbirds screaming once again
You enter in to death.
***
Insanity
The mind gives way
As darkness preys
Upon the fragile thread
The futile call
Shall mark the fall
Reality is dead.
Neglected need
Left free to breed
To grow untamed and wild
Will maim and kill
The broken will
Of some defeated child.
The dull retreat
Toward defeat
Beyond the black unknown
Shall soon succeed
Against the need
And reign supreme alone.
The surge of black
No road leads back
The gate is barred and sealed
She can not tell
Of silent hell
Where terror is revealed.
Beyond control
The poisoned soul
One final stricken cry
The real world
With fate's been hurled
Kiss sanity good bye.
