[hometext] => We've never been the same since.
[bodytext] => The songbirds awaken with the first tunes of dawn And serenades break amidst clouds Whilst long words retaken spin with grace of the fawn And away goes the shivering shrouds Bright eyes spring to conscious in inquisitive gaze The grass sparkling diamonds of dew The oblique of mornings pierces warmth through the haze And everything rises anew One pair was shining with particular glee One mind gave radiance, feeling fresher than spring One heart felt cooler than the sweet autumn leaves Lyrethal Iris sang the song of the breeze— His lips bore a curl that none could forget His face drew emotions from the soul’s own palette His presence was cherished as the sun could be perished But nothing would notice him yet. The murmurs of children falling out of their dreams The wonders all gilded, enveloped in steam Everyone saw him but none understood— But he couldn’t blame them—nobody could. The world saw him everywhere—the sun was his carriage; The warmth behind daylight to heal the disparaged. When joy was abundant and dejection struck few The grasses once sparkled with diamonds of dew. The seconds flowed forward in their steady pace His strength waxed and weakened but he glided with grace Residing in hearts with his candle alone He warmed all the world and drew sunlight from stones Wherever he traveled, the gold swiftly followed; Wherever he smiled, he silenced all sorrows As day pursued footsteps from behind came in starkness And as moon trailed the smile the world fell into darkness The evening would whisper, enticing the fool The starlight would sprinkle the mem’ries anew The moon brought a presence so refreshingly cool— But grasses grew dimmer as the diamonds grew few And then day never came The world stood still The grasses would change And despair took the hill None could remember the smile of his features And none could recall what he sang And sooner or later they returned to their preachers And soon it began to rain— And henceforth the nameless went nameless once more The smile flickered faintly as the notes lost their score The moonlight befell all the world below The daylight paced onward But nothing would show— —The diamonds were drowned and the grass wouldn't glow— [comments] => 6 [counter] => 247 [topic] => 13 [informant] => EternitysLyre [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 15 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
