White Wolf Poet Rhyme

Destiny:

A lie may stand with head held high,
With truth, that lies in a ditch nearby.
For he who braves the hidden ways,
Will find himself in stranger days.

Against the odds to prove one's self,
And turn the key of secrets be.
For way down deep, we dig in sleep,
And turn away the other cheek.

Why no one knows the others reach,
But do we must, we search and seek.
Now man will learn to sow and reap,
But modern ways will not compete.

(Posted as written when I was very young)

Newton Ranaweera January 18, 2017 at 6:14 AM I like your style. We can set the world go ahead when we think differently, though it may sound different. Great!

CayCay Godwin December 21, 2016 at 9:38 AM Did you mean 'with truth' or intend to type 'while truth' - want to be sure you didn't let down the young Rick who wrote a very profound poem on what is, to me, spiritual truth. This resonates big time with me and when you see young Rick tell him he did great! CayCay White Wolf December 21, 2016 at 4:44 PM I just typed it as I found it! 'While' would go better and it would run smoother too! But I want to keep it as I found it! Thanks, CayCay /|\
