The Sun, And The Ever Darkening Sky

by J. Allen Wilson — Read all 1,629 poems by J. Allen Wilson

Saturday, January 8, 2005

The Sun And The Ever Darkening Sky:


 


 


Though there be dark clouds


which on horizon loom.


Black and ominous


Filling our fleeting,


drifting thoughts


with that of misery and doom.


Forever now, it seems


Casting their cold dark shadows


across a once resplendent sun,


 seeking to devour


the soul which has come undone.


Yet, however, within that very soul


 lies a hidden strength,


 which has the ability


to keep it whole.


So never, mind the night


Or the darkness therein


Cease now to worry


over such impending plight.


For its stench,


Its vileness


Its unsavory depravity


All shall


quickly pass


For nothing but forever


will permanently last.


And if that forever


Is built upon the foundation of light


for it is so overwhelmingly true


that thy faith will indeed


make thee whole,


So, worry not


over the coming of night.


Worry not will I


Nay….not this day


For there is a gentler peace


which lies beyond


The ominous clouds


of the ever darkening sky.

within that very soul
lies a hidden strength

the strength within your soul is so evident and is an inspiration, a beacon from a lighthouse in the midst of a stormy night. thank you.

Allen, an incredible journey that begins within a darken sky often immediately sheds its overcast and gloom and leads to a brilliant sunny spot amongst the shimmering stars, my gifted and respected friend. Never doubt the unique ability of the solace one can find in the near future, so as long as one believes there is a better opportunity for tomorrow. A wonderful inspiring well-penned composition. Thanks for sharing it. Be well and take good care.
