The
Sun Shining
Beautiful spirit, almighty dawn,
Your
light flickered across the sky,
Drawing an array of splendid
hues,
The rays of which danced like bright swords,
And engaged
the viewer with awesome might.
The world would fill with ice
without you,
And all of life would vanish away,
For your beams
preserve this very planet,
Creating a plethora of vivid
vistas,
And infusing them with stunning brilliance.
Death
It
crept eerily around
With its long, gnarled fingers
Seeking to
bring about
Despair and suffering wherever it went.
It
stripped beings of their souls
Siphoning away all of life
And
stuffing them into a dark void
To remain there until the end of
time.
Mysterious Dancer
I
saw you from afar
Like a bright jewel against the sky
You
danced with an aura of salvation
For your presence marked me
greatly.
Your dance, like the flight of a phoenix
Came with
a fire of passion
Scorching me bare, save for my soul
Which
came to life with the force of desire.
