Followers of the Light

Ever notice when it's dark; There is an absent of light; Have you ever embarked; To travel through the beveling clouds; Shadowed and silver lined walls; Basically at awe, no eyes can penetrate; In awe we reiterate, captive by the shadow of the darkness prowls; when things go wrong; I can't see myself In the darkness long; I move on, until I become a flower of the Light; Have you been encapsulated and enclosed behind walls; Darken by the four corners and six walls; Can't see at all; traveling while encased in beveled clouds; Purple, blue and black shadows with no windows to open; Basically at awe, no eyes can penetrate; Get me out of here tired of being held captive; I can't see a thing, everything around me is dark. . . when things go wrong; and I'm not strong; I can't see myself; In the darkness long; I move on, until I become a follower, moving I move on, until I become I move on, until I become a follower of the Light No longer in the darkness now, I can see what's right; I am one of the followers of the light Written by James Edward Lee Sr. (c)2017 from the anthology "Really"

Thanks, I've been nerding around with words. I've taken responses from my fellow Souper's and transpose them to lyrics and or poems base on two or more words. Guess what "Perfect Love" that that Jesus and God gives to us much better than mans/(women) love. Inspired by the words dedicated to you fellow Souper enjoy I hope Thanks for the encouragement. . . :) "there's praise in words and words in praise"--- James E Lee Sr.
