And With Tantalizing Depths Found We Paint Beauty Divine
And With Tantalizing Depths Found We Paint Beauty Divine
I walked into blazing inferno, heart so ready
My soul so positive, this old heart beating so steady
Rhythm and rhyme bursting so like a balloon to get out
Energy in these veins pouring verses like water spout
And an eager spirit, speaking of life, dear love and hope
Warning of this world's deepest darkness and its savage scope
But mixed in is heart's mercies and a ton, so much more
Poets know this, and that is why to Heavens they implore
Celestial guidance and a rare, gifted word or two
O' mighty lord so we dare beg thee that thy hand will do
Allow us to cast the fine words that makes our spirits soar
Open up senses and poetry flows through golden doors.
And with tantalizing depths found, we paint beauty divine.
Drink we fruit of our words like great and true, fine tasting wine!
Robert J. Lindley, Sonnet
Note : No date on poem but must have been in the mid 1970'S..
