Shadows rule the night,
Drifting across the sky,
Engulf the shimmering light
Without questioning why.
What has the world become
Darkness seeks to rule,
Kindness and goodness undone,
Replaced by ways so cruel.
The way of Mankind is unclear,
No-one can seem to agree
Differences always appear,
What’s to become of you and me?
The dawning of each new day,
Is a chance to put things to rights,
The warmth of the sun’s early ray,
Contrasts to the coolness of night.
Light can be seen nonetheless,
Like a beacon Hope will shine on,
How long it takes is anyone’s guess
For the shadows all to be gone.
Beautifully written. Thanks for sharing
There is always hope… and th old adage holds true about not sleeping on an argment. Wonder if we could get nations to go down that route?
It’s a nice thought, but it won’t happen. Too much greed and the need for power imo.
Right now, I agree with you… but hope knows no logic.
That’s what keeps it going I think.
This is a lovely poem.
Thanks Roberta
