Crystol Woods Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

Iambic tetrameter rhyme abab bcc add bee

Seed Within

Such bounty found in this garden
Lush vegetation, ripened fruit
Indulge and then I'll seek pardon
Planted ideas have taken root

Lush vegetation, ripened fruit
But only those forbidden call
To lust and wanton wishes fall

Indulge and then I'll seek pardon
This juice such a delicious taste
And caring not for what I waste

Planted ideas have taken root
The seed of greed and growth of sin
In womb of earth, and womb within.

Gershon Wolf August 3, 2024 at 8:09 PM How this resonates, Crystol... Sin is so tempting unless met by unshakeable resolve. And then there is that sly snake in the garden as well... Fine poesy, methinks. Thank you, Gershon Crystol Woods August 4, 2024 at 9:17 AM Thanks Gershon... we've all unfortunately been there when temptation wins. Thank God for forgiveness and try again! It can be withstood with the examples we are given in scripture. But none are perfect! Thanks for stopping by to comment GW
