Sanguine Moons 

 

Solemn gateways;

Chiseled in stone;

Resurrection of promises,

buried beneath silence unknown.

Voices of gallows;

Hidden within the chambers vault;

Prayer silently spoken;

Forgiveness needs no fault.

The righteous heart reaches,

from the graves buried deep;

Speaking into the soul,

where even the deprave shall speak.

Like a vociferous echo of forgotten detail,

stillness succumbs into memories;

reaching from their holy grail.

Encumbered within evocations of bloodstained wisdoms;

Virtue rises to reckon the stolen quietude’s of death;

For only in living will solemn gateways know,

were sordid truth beneath sanguine moons are kept.

What a rush, this marvelous, in depth look into the mysterious.

Life and death, the dance we step into from birth. We are born to die. What life we live in between is what makes that entry worth taking, a waltz with the unknown to make what we know a lasting impression until the next time. Return to the grave and find it empty. The soul has risen again.... Grand words and visions. Your pen is blessed, dear V.

Interesting. "Moons of blood." Symbolically meaningful and open to interpretation depending on the reader and her/his mood. Thank you, Vickie. Love, hugs, and best wishes,

Mysterious write, Victoria. You don't just tell a story--you create an experience. Well done.

Sepuchral...suggesting of the tomb...revived by the blood red moons...so many are 'hung' by their false words at the gallows...vile truths somehow do eventually surface...within chants and calling forth the truth releases the chains bound with blood of hypocrisy...forgiveness has to be earned, but then when one is dead, the afterlife takes care of it all...

Don Dean sent me his latest CD from his country...the one I was presented with for winning the Creative Thinkers International One-Year contest...he sent me a painting too...he is a beautiful artist who is very deserving of your link, V...be well...

A bit of a chill up the back of my neck. Very artistic. Like bloodstained wisdoms and sordid truths. Nice pairing and an excellent write.

This is one of your eerily beautiful writes that brings the reader's thoughts into the shadows and chill night air of the cemetaries and morgues of a poet's soul. Very nicely done Vick...enjoyed it.

"...the stolen quietude's of death..." a poem vociferating from the innards of dungeons, yet, no menacing or sad, more like a scream of rebellion with a self explanatory finale.
Brava!
