Robert Lindley Poet Sonnet

Whispering Shadows Are Waltzing To That Undulating Beat

Whispering Shadows Are Waltzing To That Undulating Beat

Moon by day is a faintly cast glow, a poetic dance
If Love's hand in play, it is a fabulous gold romance
Spinning round the sky for the audience's delicious glee
Oh, my lover that is the beauty for both you and me
As we enjoy and watch the parade in Mother sky
Yet quite oft a message resides within asking the why
Whispering shadows are waltzing to that undulating beat
As humanity rejoices in finding new ways to cheat
Alas! There always is a very steep-set price to pay
For Heaven always has the final, truer, righteous say
Our Lord rejoices when we heed those biblical held laws
Else we in deep pain, wake up to deep slashing devil's claws!

Dare we in blind ignorance walk a sad crooked trail?
Follow loud, baying hell-hounds right into unholy hell?

Panagiota Romios June 22, 2023 at 9:41 AM Awesome. Reminds me of that truism,,, The wages of si in death! We must remember to act and write with. Integrity and follow His ways, The world has cast God into the junk pile. Adoration now is to be politically, correct. Bow to sex changes and also climate change. Even the churches have gone woke most recently, the Catholic Church.. it’s a shame this is happening to our world. Panagiota xxRM Robert Lindley June 23, 2023 at 10:47 AM Thank you, my friend. Honesty, integrity and honorable character make a man. Those things you named are Satan's temptations at play. God bless.

Michael Tor June 21, 2023 at 7:15 PM Powerful write of truth Robert. You have expressed it well. There is a price to pay for being unfaithful and when you are Satan has you in his grip. Well written my friend have to catch up on your other Poetry... Robert Lindley June 23, 2023 at 10:46 AM Thank you, my friend. Once in his grip it is mighty hard to gain freedom from that grasp. God bless.

Brandy Nicole June 21, 2023 at 6:36 PM Dear Robert, this is beautiful, emotional and spiritual, all at the same time. Many let the devil's influence direct their paths, when they should be following the Lord. Your thoughts hold meaning and depth. Thank you for being here, for being an inspiration to us all. Many wonderful blessings to you. Hugs, Brandy Robert Lindley June 23, 2023 at 10:45 AM Thank you, my friend. Satan is always ready to lend an unhelping hand to those seeking.

Panagiota Romios June 21, 2023 at 4:41 PM I agree with Yolanda. Hell hounds run this world and in truth, humanity is following along dancing merrily, smoking pot and running the country, and all the people died for. This for all the world. They do not see they are following a Hitler in various disguises. I don’t want to get into the specifics. as many here adore evil leaders who clothe themselves as saints. Great poem Panagiota Robert Lindley June 21, 2023 at 4:44 PM Thank you, my friend. Yes, evil works and disguises itself as good. Especially so in politics. Plain fact is one party is riding the evil train. And they are ruining this nation, imho. God bless.

Mrs. Yolanda Nicholsen June 21, 2023 at 9:23 AM wow this is a powerful write... enjoyed Robert Lindley June 21, 2023 at 10:35 AM Thank you, my friend. Yes, biblical teachings are powerful and set down rules or laws for us to follow. Problem is we usually do not see/understand or else we do so willfully disobey. God bless...
