Colin Mitchell Williams Poet Free verse

All From Darkness

Never before has such a blind sleep made so resolute to awaken
and from the ancient sands of shadows
calls now to the form of human souls

Gather there forthwith, from all that fear has darkened
and turn about those pitiful echoes in abuse
for effortless is the target of innocence and use

No mortal light can be gleaned from the doubt of survival
but give more to tears in prescient emotion
and believe loves sway to the counsellings of heart

Time of evolution befalls
and perchance all yields greater than wish imagined
in spiritual resonance becomes this occurrence of beauty

Why so broken crashed upon illusions bloody crag
faltering ever in conspicuous damnation
and by wont amnesiac indistinguishable of strength

Arise, carry not the embalmed prisons in desperate life
as dust these monsters suckle upon starvation
but with joyous arms embrace this tender Earth    

She calls now to the form of human souls
and from the ancient sands of shadows
never before has such a blind sleep made so resolute to awaken.

Poet Destroyer A March 11, 2016 at 12:46 PM Colin, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@ Colin Mitchell Williams March 18, 2016 at 2:12 PM thank you .. again
