Autumns Door ~

Credence aligned along the corridores of passage

Which usher in through the portends

This autumns door....

Such colourful banners of latitudes sprinkling

Flowing waters of repose that still echo

Inside, these sanctuaries walls

Guarded by the sentry whom stands at their gate

The entrance to the destined temple

Of the blessed, and eternal soul....

Silver and gold adorning nativities scene

A sacred reminder of divinities call

To have and to hold such prophetical promises

"Profound," laid afore this starlit alter

Treasures as verse, whose words do echo

Atop the tumbling of the organs keys....

Assembling choirs of angelic voices

Proclaiming these melodies of harmonies chords

While the infant smiled, and gazed into the future

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In, through the autumns door ~

John, So good to hear from you my dear friend. I've thought about you a lot John over the last few months while I was away from the site attending my first year of college. My heart has been rather heavy over the argument we had. I'm sorry that happened John! Your poetry seems to changed John, it's more subtle and peaceful. I love your poetry as I love your soul, YF4l, God Bless, mj
