Robert Lindley Poet Classicism

Twixt Immense Powers of Love and Dark Hates

Twixt Immense Powers Of Love And Dark Hates

Twixt' immense powers of Love and dark Hates
rests blackest void that in sad sorrow awaits

For love bringeth deepest joys of moonlit dreams
emerging Light, epic truth it always brings
Shining dawns that wrap souls into warm fires
rose-red colors, graced by hope that so inspires

Yet seeds of dark hate cleaveth to such high cliffs
oft seen images Egyptian hieroglyphs
Dark webs wickedly woven to lost souls trap
birthing false paths upon each deceiving map

Twixt' immense powers of Love and dark Hates
rests blackest void that in sad sorrow awaits

Colossal powers battle to control gain
one storm's wrecking wrath, other Spring's giving rain
Betwixt that eternal realm, Darkness and Light
man but mere pawn in that never ending fight

Should thee seeketh with truth and warm open hearts
Light gifteth joy and as wisdom it imparts
Saileth thy vessel, blue waters of calm seas
without direst fears, need of sad prayer pleas

Twixt' immense powers of Love and dark Hates
rests blackest void that in sad sorrow awaits

Lisa Ricci March 23, 2017 at 4:00 PM Dear Robert. There isn't a rating to match such an entry. I am in poetry awe of its language and execution. Excuse me, in your language and execution. I found this entry without saying to be formulated in the truest fashion and sense. You took the Classicism format and wrote the extra poetic mile. It was an honor to turn to your page this afternoon. Honestly. Robert Lindley March 24, 2017 at 5:55 AM Thank you Lisa. Your comments are glowing in kindness and inspire one to always live up to such in a most positive way my friend..

Doug Vinson March 22, 2017 at 12:37 PM Robert. : ) Indeed - 'Classicism' - that old-time poetic religion. Reads very well. Robert Lindley March 24, 2017 at 5:53 AM Thank you Doug. I love to write in a more classic way sometimes. This kind of started and just flowed out in one fast pace of writing. "Twixt' immense powers of Love and dark Hates rests blackest void that in sad sorrow awaits" Those two verses came to me, I sat down to write an the rest flowed right on out.
