~ do not let the wings of time ... drown in tears ~ quote by poet When the clouds hide the sun from view led with the flash of a bold lightning by a nourishing current Throwing down their spears from a burning forge The gloom is creeping into my heart and the core of my soul Even under the cathedral of sanity which may resemble a middle-aged woman Who knows the beast from Lerna, Hydra? the serpentine monster with nine heads her hypnotic effect is undoubtedly poisonous Life has made my wings for a reason let the sea spray drown all sorrows Heart aching time should be counted as courage and always remember who I am Between those proud moments of recognition wipes a tear when the scrolling text arrive ~ 12.04.2023 Sun :) - A-L Andresen :) Copyright © All Rights Reserved - 'T' Words - Poetry Contest - Sponsored by: Constance La France 1st place in the contest

love your cathedral of sanity. Also the first line of your last stanza and of course the quote you included at the top. All in all, a fine piece which deserves congratulations for itself not the placement alone. You are the poet of my day.

Great penning dear Smile. Life is one of heartaches. But as we are given wings, we have to know that they are given to us for a reason, and not to sit folding them and rest. Love and hugs...
