In the crucible of hardship’s fire, Strength is forged in trials’ embrace, A spirit tested, rising higher, Emerging with a fierce, unyielding grace.

In the stillness of the soul's deep night, A flicker of truth begins to glow, A path unfolds, both dark and bright,
In the echoes of forgotten days, Memories drift like autumn leaves, Fading colors, once so bright, Now softened by the hands of time.
Sitting here In silent isolation. Waiting. Longing for your return Expecting a call from you everyday Never more shall I hear your beautiful voice

In the hush of moonlit veils, Hidden lovers leave soft trails. In shadowed corners, hearts collide, Where secrets in the night abide.
The precipice of poetry that seeks redemption Callous whispers that uproar the fear in my mind, Bounty tales of my existence may cease to be left behind.

A moving heart, a restless beat, It travels paths where dreams and shadows meet. It wanders through the realms of hope,
Green grass beneath the morning dew, A canvas painted fresh and new. A verdant sea, a tranquil place. It sways with whispers of the breeze,
What sort of flower needs the protection Of a slightly ridiculous, plumed knight? From what deranged imagination Came this preposterous, floral fight?
By D. J. Reddall2 years ago in Poets
In twilight’s gentle, fleeting grace, A whisper stirs the evening’s lace, Soft murmurs in the evening breeze,
In the hush of twilight’s glow, Where gentle night winds softly blow, We find a quiet place to lay, Our weary hearts and minds at bay.
