"Quoted Rhyming Couplet"

I created this style. If you try it, let me know how it worked for you. 🦊

 

It was a dark and lonely path I walked.
With heavy step and a heart long locked.
Life had become an endless dark maze.
Marked only by my many regrets.
And the good times one quickly forgets.

"Blessed are you whose worthiness gives scope,
Being had, to triumph; being lacked, to hope."

I felt as if I was being stalked.
My every effort was being mocked.
The world had become a labyrinth.
Filled with my fears and shadowy threats.
Of deep dark pits and cruel bloody nets.

"The mind I sway by and the heart I bear
Shall never sag with doubt nor shake with fear"

Although my heart felt like it was hawked.
And my soul felt like it was landlocked.
My life looking more like a puzzle.
And yet no matter how hard it gets.
I’ll trust the Lord who’s paid all my debts.

"So, till the judgement that yourself arise,
You live in this, and dwell in lovers' eyes."

Style aside, when I read a poem, I'm looking for how it communicates and sometimes, the style and the rhyme scheme, if it rhymes, make the poem communicate better.

In this case, the mood of the poem was down and the interludes, in quote marks, apparently, counters to that kind of thinking. So I got the message of the poem quite well.

A unique style... ...but the message which pays tribute to your faith comes through loud and clear. Love, peace and blessings to you, MJ,

Regis. 🙏🍁
