Free Will

In Response To:

Crimson’s Creative Challenge #60 – Every Wednesday I post a photo.  You respond with something CREATIVE.

Behind the steel bars

is a tunnel that leads to

a prison of lost dreams,

deferred hope, abandoned faith

endless wandering through

mazes that can only be felt

for in this there is no sight…

until weariness meets humility

and the soul’s patina becomes 

new again unlocking the bars

setting free what was once

drowning in the sewage of despair.

Life can begin again at any time,

any moment of the day, by choice.

A Shone Menagerie

Crimson’s Creative Challenge #59 – Every Wednesday I post a photo.  You respond with something CREATIVE.

A circle of lights

an advent of lights

a menorah of lights

a light of a humbled soul

all share a Love in common

to shine in a dark world that

the lost may find their way home

An ancient building

centuries old

holds many thoughts

and secrets told

yet holy and sacred

where souls lived to pray

and listen to the angels sing

is this fable or a cliche

 evidence of truth

is quite revealing

 although derived from

circumstantial proof

one can only wonder

has the truth become aloof?
