Of Poetic Verse, a Heavenly Illumination

Of Poetic Verse, A Heavenly Illumination As Seen By Heaven's True Light Vanity of shallow purple robe kings Dismissive of Heaven's true saving light Brutish and naked in darkness they sing Haughtily shouting of their shallow might. Robert J. Lindley, 70-? Quatrain ******* As Seen By Heaven's Soft Glow Glittering stars illuminating night As titans that vanished so long ago We imagine them in eternal flight And in distance merely a short stone's throw. Robert J. Lindley, 70-? Quatrain ******* As Seen By Heaven's Beauty Be softly calm and so quietly still Let the soft flowing winds hear no sad cries Tis love that eager heart so truly fills And Heaven's beauty that graces night skies. Robert J. Lindley, 70-? Quatrain Note: Three quatrains that were born back in the late 70's. I do so regret whenever I find my old poems with either no notes or else incomplete notes.

They've certainly stood the test of time Robert, brilliantly composed. Tom

Thank you my friend. I always regret when I find my old poems without notes or else with incomplete notes. And nobody to blame but the "lazy" poet author.. At least a vague memory tells me that they were written together in the 70's.... God bless...
