Robert Lindley Poet Rhyme

Waking To New Dawn, Its Deafening Roar of Silence

[SIZE=5][B]Waking To New Dawn, Its Deafening Roar Of Silence[/B][/SIZE]

Then there are words that we fear to ever openly say
Like how our past view of life-this evil world, sets our paths askew
Like icicles crashing down into a bottomless gray
And those things we fear to face because they are new-
A move from peace and comfort into a faraway place
Or valleys, one so rightly would fear to ever tread
And death's unwelcomed blow with its monstrously wicked face
Or perhaps even greater, when we face - lonely silence instead.
