Let Truth Burn Away Your Deceptive Cloak, Sonnet Doubles

Sonnet Doubles: First sonnet Let Truth Burn Away Your Deceptive Cloak Let truth burn away your deceptive cloak lower vanity's shield, go have a smoke, even if, a diamond, in love's gold crown life shows greater rise, after falling down! In vanity's false, self-proclaimed state live many victims of their own dark hate, darkness, its power holds so many keys to locks and chains, stopping those who would flee! Look inward to devilish chains of hate beg mercy and tempt not, a darker fate, seek the moment, to let kindness prevail cross joyous oceans under, pure white sails! Black cloud that holds, your happy life at bay Is but selfish sin, you have given sway! Robert J. Lindley, 11-20-2019 Sonnet, ( Living in this dark world, one should seek waiting light ) 2nd sonnet When Night Comes, Be Not Afraid Of Its Dark When dawn sends rays of hope into your life allow its golden glow, to wipe away strife rise to give deep thanks and bow head to pray seize its power to keep dark world at bay! When new day, brings a stormy afternoon believe brighter times will be coming soon hitch your horse to wagon and give free reign to trod to heart's true desire and remain! When night comes, be not afraid of its dark although new scenes may be scarily stark have faith that again com'eth morn's first rays blessings sent to all who sincerely prays! Fear apathy that oft birth newfound woes And world's black lies that cry-- anything goes! Robert J. Lindley, 11-20-2019 Sonnets Doubles, ( Words On Faith, Hope And Truth- And World's Dark Course )
