In a moon landscape, aloof night sprays of light. A child's eyes well up! Beams of luminescence cling. Angel marvels and ponders the modern World's blight. The wispy style of savvy trees boldly veils the evening. Your parents may not live forever, as they will a day! The rusted river bangs to the noise of mist plunging, Meanwhile, re-mixing with the planet's existing vitality! Sadness, the force of my cynicism, greets me with sorrow. And if it hadn't been for my injuries sustained sensitivity, Perhaps the delight I've found in myself will also grow! Devils haunt the night's fading interior atmosphere. My gullible mind swings in twirl froths while I bestow. My sad, strong face wipes the nervous laughter severe. When will the Universe's beaming embraces adjure?

You captured that feeling of dispair and hopelessness in your verse Lasaad. Hope your new year is off to a great start. Tom

WoW! So well thought out and well expressed. I see one who is beset with troubles but still manages to have faith and carry on despite the slings and arrows of the enemy. Well done. God Bless and a much blessed New Year to you and yours my friend. JB
