We Aren'T Lost To Green An Gold

As consciousness rose so did the shadows in men, until the white sun rises and leaves turn unfolding Zen In the long grass of sleep we all lay awaiting the awakening to life, innocence filled our atoms but we breathed in being and strife In all the evil that’s been bourn perpetuating the threat of old, is the rotten heart of humanity and with stealthy legs he rolls As lessons of history were shared the sins of time have repeated, and the hordes filled with hate storm the Tara pets at our feet Until hate is colour blind and all gods are held up, and the mantel in the flame is blown and fully caught We are lost but not in vain will this fight be forever fought, be not afraid for in our veins is courage breed and brought I have faith with sanity and time this blackness will fill with light, and tomorrows will be bolden-ed as purity glows crystal bright Watching the pictures flicker by scored with suffering and pain, it's then that i fear this world will never know innocence again I feel the pureness in the flow as the breezes brush my face, in the universe no miracle holds a candle to the blue of this place Please ignore this simple child polluted and poisoned by life, I just want to see an end to war before my last rays of light

As an Australian I was completely taken in by the title. Not at all what I expected, there wasn't one mention of Aussie sports teams at all. What there was though you wrapped up magnificently with that bomb of a last stanza. Powerful stuff.

This is powerfully expressed. This world of ours has been poisoned for far too long. It has lost much of its innocent allure, but we still hope that the future will be brighter. It's a dream to live for. // Glad to see you posting again, Jayne:) All the best. // paul

Perfection is reserved for the Gods...we poor morals must somehow deal with the realities of life. Beautiful words expressed with the heart of a poet. Emile #7
