Contrasting Visions...

As armies continue to march their sanguinary war lifeless lay those as sinewy gore, pinnacled soldiers atop a land possessed making themselves feel they've been blest Bittersweet is the toil of progress especially for those unacceptable to less the muses in choir sing lamentable pleas for those who have fallen on bended knees Hardpressed below in a world of chaos noise of destructions brutal chorus as the wheel of fortune continues to turn corrupted prides perpetual burn Ungrateful are those whom spoils partaken demanding more from those less privileged as the wanting mounts,so goes the engine of war, shattering breakdown of harmonies door... ~~~~ Elysian fields sit in still repose listening to scattered sorrows and woes as the white flag of truce falls lanquid ....into crimson pools, another era has corrupted world schools As the mountains robe themselves with indigo pinkish rose hues tint the early evening sky hillside flowers dance duskily as vertigo accompanied by feathered song on high Such beautiful arrangement of nature's orchestration sounds taken on the hint of colours chromatic notes displayed like butterfly variegation sweet silent hush persuades succor... ~~~~ Our world may not be perfect but,the beauty of simplicity urges us on, we are the masters of cause and effect we just need to understand where we belong There is a much higher order to emulate most enjoy this tragic comedy of pleasure and pain, thorns affixed to the lower fates while others strive for celestial gains... Dynamic dimensions of time dynamic dimensions of space individual acts experiencing imply collective acts proceeding trace Contrasting visions inquiring discrimination experience allows proper judgement prejudice fearing unknown situation composing understanding eventual attainment.... Developed composition of the sense faculties all firing in unison as a totality quantifying principles,determining quantity of energy but,also to include quality of energy Infantile souls allow the body to outshine as the lower instincts continue in reflex, mature souls subordinate the physical lines as the spirit's flame consumes vexation Still...all in ordered regulation no fruit picked before it's time, patient endurance to due satisfaction the soul's height continues to climb Seven spheres of conscious levels letting loose the crown of thorns partaking trumpets of heaven in revel restoring crown of regal born....
