On wintry nights the themes that oft appear
to curtain my thoughts with sad and somber mind
could but summer's smile bring me brighter cheer;
in these times, in this poetry I did find
worlds of immense magic I could not define.
Allow me entry through mystery's gate
scribed in temperament unique to its kind,
a joyous heart is an enlightened state
the chains of life can never control or abate.
Sweet poesy whose heartbeat did extend
beyond our earthly limits to a fame
that brilliance and excellence befriend,
and lit the edge of darkness with a flame,
that traveled circling inward as it came,
and would not perjure, injure or disown
those most inclined to sorrow and disdain;
for in her rhymes the worthy reap the throne
to usurp ignorance by acts, not words alone.
Your poem evokes sense of security and hope for the seeker. Thank you Captain Cur
