The Winds of Change

Feel the winds of change, dear friend,
They are a blowing.
Brethren beneath a common cause,
Kindred spirits, gather united.
To stand tall against opposing 
Factions,
Yet we remain strong survivors,
Of justice and right.
Adversity challenges indifference, 
It is so written good shall over,
Come evil.
The truth within us all shines,
 Humanity achieves enlightenment.
Ignorance shadow fades in
 Reality's view,
Life relishes difference,
Freedom flies soaring  mankind,
 Towards a higher plain.
What a magnificent future,
Lies ahead of us.
Individuality blossoms, fulfillment,
 Becomes a human right.
Forgiveness, compassion, and mercy,
 Shall be theirs at last.
Let no mans options to believe,
Dismay conscious choice,
Carry the banner of beliefs no matter,
What the cost or price.
Your inner self reflection captures,
 Truths mirror image.
Acknowledge separate half's,
 Making one complete being.
Behold his name is called,
Social exceptions.
Resolves concussions shows a, 
Brilliant phoenix rising, 
From hatred's ashes.
It spreads deliverance’s wings,
Embracing a majestic legacy.

Nikki Pruitt May 28, 2022 at 7:54 PM I really enjoyed this piece. I can relate to the feelings within the poem, especially regarding forgiveness. I agree with the first comment on use of punctuation, it would improve the flow. Overall it's a powerful piece and I liked it.

Carly Larkin January 14, 2014 at 5:50 PM First off I want to say good job on the Title choice it was Captivating yet not too revealing. The poem was great, and painted a picture in my head, my only suggestion would be to remove some of the comas and replace them with a few other forms of punctuation, as I feel it will really enhance the flow of the poem.
