Songs My Soul Cried Ended the Psalms of Songs--Fourth Shadow Sonnet Challenge

~~~ Songs My Soul Cried Ended the Psalms of Songs ~~~

Grace was inside my soul, I’d love his grace
Please my grace travel the world, find peace please
Face of darkness of the deep grace did face
Knees freeze and their prayers had no bowed knees

Risks ensnared the soul waiting for life’s risks
Perils times, beliefs lost liar’s perils
Frisk my soul falsehood frolic death did frisk
Morals abandon humanity; dung looted morals

Known and unknown lost all grace they had known
Peace was feared in the world, they hated peace
Alone with lost faith, their soul all alone
Ceased beliefs, lost their twin towers grace ceased

Kiss of hell walked the Earth, souls did kiss
Love healed hearts on the Sabbath that was love
Bliss with no respect, cold souls mingled bliss
Above, joy of life gone; hell now above

Songs my soul cried, ended the psalms of songs
Wrongs unforgiven, no life was dead wrongs.

Fourth Shadow Sonnet – As you can see this does not meet the challenge guidelines in this pen. I added an extra stanza to keep the meaning I wanted to achieve. Please join in if you like; it has to rhyme, 10 syllable count and 14 lines to meet the challenge. However, if you just want to be creative please do. I cannot wait to see what you all are going to write about.

David Meade February 24, 2015 at 8:32 PM The world is filled with hate and evil -- you don't need to look very long . . . a long list wrongs . . . but yet, yet their is still grace, a song in the wind, a love that stills seeks . . . seeking hearts that are hurting, wronged, lonely, a people crying for justice. Your poem speaks so much -- deep does it run and much more could and should be written. I will stop here and wish you love and light always. Dilinda A. Adams February 24, 2015 at 11:27 PM Thank you so much David, today is my first day on poetry soup! I started coming hear when a friend of mine challenged me to write this Shadow Sonnet. I am humbled and blessed by your kind words and their is enough love and light to always share. Stay blessed.
