Robert Lindley Poet Sonnet

Yes, Eventually

Yes, Eventually


Eventually life sends a message clear
 embrace courage abandon your fear
Take big steps to lead a life of hope
 anything is possible given enough rope

Eventually a great storm will try to slay
 prepare faithfully for such a tragic day
Take all our evil vices into account
 upon a charging steed soundly mount

Eventually critics will call for your head
 by lying about things you never said
Take measure of the false steps they make
 shine a great light proving they are fake

Eventually the world will learn to respect you
Even then, fools and knaves will not have a clue

Arthur Vaso July 27, 2014 at 10:16 PM Such wisdom, loved it! Richard said it so well! Robert Lindley July 27, 2014 at 10:31 PM That he did my friend. We must listen to that inner voice begging us to stop when journeying down a path to our own destruction. So many speed up instead of reversing course! Luckily prayers for me and eventually offered sincerely by me saved me! Thanks for commenting my friend!

Richard Lamoureux July 27, 2014 at 9:24 AM Sometime life screams at people and still they ignore it. I'm glad you listen. Robert Lindley July 27, 2014 at 11:43 AM Thank you Richard. I'd not be alive had I not listened and that is a fact!
