Old Horn

old horn new age begins hands turn the cycle back as men to old tribes is inclined the bright new iron, the axe, the helmet those swords of yesterday arise weary world turns again to a past world’s old horn

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
